Kun LamTaking center stage along the outer harbor waterfront is this breath-taking statue of the Goddess of Mercy.
Kun Lam is the most popular goddess amongst Buddhists and plays a special role in protecting children, as well as bringing affluence.
Inaugurated by the Portuguese president Jorge Sampaio, the statue was designed by noted Portuguese artist Cristina Rocha Leiria.
The 48 polished bronze plates that make up the 20-meter tall statue were crafted in Nanjing, and bolted together on site.
The giant lotus flower pedestal is home to the Ecumenical Centre, providing information on China's major religions.

Wonderful reflections, and scenery!
I can see your reflection in the first photo :-)
Interesting!
Nice series of reflections. The last photo of the goddess is neat -- and unexpected.
You travel a lot!
so nice
nice!! How's Xmas in HK?
This is the same trip right? :p I had traveled on a ferry only once. :D
These are wonderful photos!
I really enjoyed visiting all the Outer Islands from Hong Kong, they were all so different, the Ferries gave a wonderful service, and I took a different trip each day. I didn't like Macau quite so much, I am not a big city person.
u live such a wonderful life n thanks for sharing it
Wonderful photos. I so admire the statue of the Goddess of Mercy, just lovely.
Wenn: Fun series of photos with neat information from your travels.
Thank you for sharing these with us! I really like your reflections!
In a few years, there will be a bridge - the world's longest - connecting HK and Macau. The ferry service may not be needed by then.
love, Love, LOVE your reflections. All of these shots are lovely!

I don't like travelling by water...ferries, boats etc. Sometimes can't help it though...when the only way to travel is by ferries or boats.
