It is most famous for the sunrise scenery viewed from the summit. Name originThe mountain is actually made up of a pair of peaks, one is known as "Fung Shan" (male phoenix mountain) and the other is "Wong Shan" (female phoenix mountain), together they form "Fung Wong Shan". ClimateLantau Peak is located in central Lantau Island, with an elevation of 934 meters above sea level (23 metres shorter than Tai Mo Shan, Hong Kong's highest peak). Under the Köppen climate classification, Lantau Peak features a subtropical highland climate. Due to its elevation, strong winds and fog occur throughout the year. Winter is cold with temperatures often dip below 0 ° C; summer is warm with temperatures reaching tops of 18-22 ° C, which can be considered as a summer resort in Hong Kong(since Hong Kong is usually really hot during summer); the spring is cool to cold but very humid, while the autumn is cool and dry, but also because of its climate similar to Tai Mo Shan, winter might experiences frost and snow and other winter special weather phenomena, even more than Tai Mo Shan and Ngong Ping also much more cold (because it is isolated from urban areas and often experiences strong winds throughout the year). Because there is no weather station at the top of Lantau Peak, the Ngong Ping Weather Station of the Hong Kong Observatory can only be used as reference for its temperature. The temperature in the vicinity of Ngong Ping is lower than that at Chek Lap Kok. It is estimated that the temperature of Lantau Peak is about 7 ℃ lower than that of Ngong Ping. {{Weather box|width=auto|location = Lantau Peak |metric first = Yi |single line = Yi |year high C = 14.6 |Jan high C = 8.3 |Feb high C = 10.2 |Mar high C = 11.9 |Apr high C = 14.2 |May high C = 16.6 |Jun high C = 17.8 |Jul high C = 18.5 |Aug high C = 19.2 |Sep high C = 18.7 |Oct high C = 16.6 |Nov high C = 13.5 |Dec high C = 10.0 |Jan mean C = 4.9 |Feb mean C = 7.2 |Mar mean C = 9.0 |Apr mean C = 13.1 |May mean C = 14.8 |Jun mean C = 16.3 |Jul mean C = 16.9 |Aug mean C = 17.1 |Sep mean C = 16.3 |Oct mean C = 13.8 |Nov mean C = 10.6 |Dec mean C = 6.8 |year mean C = 12.2 |Jan low C = 2.3 |Feb low C = 4.9 |Mar low C = 6.8 |Apr low C = 10.0 |May low C = 13.1 |Jun low C = 14.7 |Jul low C = 15.3 |Aug low C = 15.3 |Sep low C = 14.5 |Oct low C = 11.9 |Nov low C = 8.4 |Dec low C = 4.2 |year low C = 10.1 |source 1 = Climate Data for Lantau Peak — Hong Kong Observatory |date=January 2017}} SunriseThe peak is one of the most popular hiking spots in Hong Kong and can be reached by the Lantau Trail. Most hikers begin their climb from the Youth Hostel near Ngong Ping before dawn in order to catch a view of the sunrise. References
