Ngong Ping 360 offers guests a vast and magnificent view of Lantau Island. Following the launch of the crystal cabin with a transparent bottom, the new "Panoramic Cable Car Crystal+" was launched this year to bring guests a "more crystal" experience. The Crystal+ Panoramic Cable Car uses fully transparent tempered glass on the bottom and four sides of the cabin, allowing guests to enjoy a 360-degree panoramic view of the Hong Kong-Zhuhai-Macao Bridge, Hong Kong International Airport, Tian Tan Buddha and other beautiful scenery. In addition, the design of the Crystal+ Panoramic Cable Car makes the field of view inside the cable car more than 80%. The carefully selected glass is extremely crystal clear, making the field of view clearer and seemingly unobstructed, and the high-definition scenery is in full view, adding a more complete landscape enjoyment to the cable car journey.
The almost completely transparent design of the "Panoramic Cable Car Crystal+" cabin allows guests to take photos and check in from all directions. "Flawless" panoramic photos can be easily taken in every corner of the cabin. Each "Panoramic Cable Car Crystal+" cabin has a maximum passenger capacity of 10 people (load capacity of 750 kg), allowing guests to fully enjoy the beautiful scenery and check in with family and friends.
Mr. Lau Wai Ming, Managing Director of Ngong Ping 360, said: “Ngong Ping 360 has always been committed to enhancing the guest experience. During the past two years of the pandemic, we did not slow down. In addition to striving to maintain normal operations, we also focused on the research and development of the ‘Crystal+ Panoramic Cable Car’, which was finally successfully launched to the market this year. In addition to providing Hong Kong citizens with a brand-new leisure travel option during the upcoming Christmas and New Year holidays, the ‘Crystal+ Panoramic Cable Car’ also enriches local tourism resources and prepares for the arrival of tourists from all over the world.”

Developed in collaboration with European experts Made in France and Italy
The "Panoramic Cable Car Crystal+" has a total of 7 cabins and is believed to be the cable car with the largest interior space among similar cable cars with glass bodies and floors in the world. Developed in Europe, the Crystal+ Panoramic Cable Car was supervised by Ngong Ping 360’s engineering team and independent German experts. The entire research and production process took more than two years and was led by Italian and French cable car experts.
Mr. Lam Hong-chi, Operation Manager of Ngong Ping 360 Cable Car, said: “It is a valuable experience to work with an international team of experts to make the Crystal+ a world-class cable car cabin that is both comfortable and safe. The team strives to achieve perfection in all aspects of production, especially in the selection of tempered glass materials. In the end, two layers of transparent tempered glass made in Italy were selected as the four side panels of the cabin, and the bottom was made of three layers of fully transparent tempered glass made in France, so that guests can enjoy the high-definition scenery while feeling safe and comfortable.”
The cabin of the "Crystal+ Panoramic Cable Car" is designed and manufactured by French cable car manufacturer Sigma. It fully complies with EU standards and has obtained local cable car certification. Sigma has also allowed the "Crystal+ Panoramic Cable Car" to pass the necessary safety tests and obtain relevant certification in accordance with the requirements of the European Commission (EC). After the carriage arrived in Hong Kong, relevant tests were carried out again. The report and details have been submitted to relevant government departments for review and approval, and the results all met safety standards.
When Ngong Ping 360 was first opened in 2006, it only had standard cabins. Three years later, the crystal cabins were added. The body of the cabin is similar to the standard cabin, but the bottom is made of tempered glass. There are currently 65 standard cabins and 36 crystal cabins. After the 7 "Panoramic Cable Car Crystal+" cabins are put into service, Ngong Ping 360 will have a total of 108 cable cars serving guests.
