HONG KONG MTR NGONG PING 360

The Ngong Ping 360 is a tourism project on Lantau Island in Hong Kong.

The project was previously known as Tung Chung Cable Car Project

before acquiring the Ngong Ping 360 brand in April 2005. It consists of

the Ngong Ping Cable Car, a gondola lift formerly known as the Ngong

Ping 360 Skyrail, and the Ngong Ping Village, a retail and entertainment

centre adjacent to the cable car's upper station.

Ngong Ping 360 is owned by the MTR Corporation, the operator of Hong Kong's rail system. It was built

by Leitner Ropeways and was originally operated by Skyrail-ITM. Skyrail-ITM was removed from the

project after an investigation following an incident in June 2007. It is now operated by a directly owned

subsidiary of the MTR Corporation.
