Ngong Ping Cable Car is a 25 minute, 5.7km bi-cable ropeway beginning at Tung Chung, crossing Tung Chung Bay to reach the angle station on Airport Island and turning about 60 degrees in the air towards North Lantau. Visitors will enjoy some of the best views: vistas of the South China Sea, the rolling grassland slopes of North Lantau Country Park, a panorama of Hong Kong International Airport, view of the mountainous terrain of Lantau Island, Tian Tan Buddha (Big Buddha) and the 360-degree view of the Ngong Ping Plateau.
The Ngoong Ping Cable Car is how most people get to Po Lin Monastery and Big Buddha. At the end of the ride is Ngong Ping Village, built as a receiving point for the cable cars. It is not an authentic village, but an outdoor shopping area especially for tourists who come to Lantau Island to see the Big Buddha and the Po Lin Monastery.
The other way to get to the top is the Ngong Ping Trail connecting Tung Chung and Ngong Ping. The trail is used as the access for maintenance and rescue, with much of it directly under the path of the cable cars. After visiting Tian Tan Buddha and Po Lin Monastery some visitors like to do the 3-hour hike downhill towards Tung Chung.
Pingyao (in cinese: 平遥, Píngyáo) è una città che si trova nella provincia di Shanxi, in Cina, a circa 700 chilometri da Pechino e 80 da Taiyuan. Durante la Dinastia Qing Pingyao fu il centro finanziario della Cina. Oggi è famosa per mura ottimamente conservate; inoltre è stata inserita nell'elenco dei Patrimoni dell'umanità dell'UNESCO.
Pingyao mantiene in gran parte l'organizzazione e l'aspetto di una città delle dinastie Ming e Qing, con una classica pianta a forma di bagua. Più di 300 siti all'interno e nelle immediate vicinanze della città rivestono un interesse archeologico, con circa 4.000 edifici risalenti alle dinastie Ming e Qing.
Durante il periodo della Primavera e dell'Autunno la città apparteneva allo Stato di Jin, mentre durante il periodo degli stati combattenti faceva parte del regno di Zhao. Durante la Dinastia Qin la città era conosciuta col nome di Pingtao; durante la Dinastia Han invece aveva il nome di Zhongdu.

平安里位于上海市虹口区，建于1925年，由4排石库门建筑所组成，房子结构不错，里面的楼梯都有精美的雕刻。
由于修建外滩隧道的需要，附近的长治路桥必须抬高，由此使平安里的老建筑出现了很多裂缝，只能用巨大的槽钢来支撑，以免其倒塌.世博会开幕前，外滩隧道如期完工通车，但所遗留下的问题到现在无人过问.
平安里，如今不平安，槽钢支撑下的生活.
