Hong Kong - Tian Tan Buddha

Hi, Hubby and I will be spending 3 days in Hong Kong next month and would like to visit the Tian Tan Buddha, Lantau Island. Our hotel is located on Nathan Road and I was wondering what would be the easiest way to get to Lantau Island?? Any advice will be greatly appreciated. Thank you

I took a ferry but it appears you can take the Metro (among other means):

Here's the ferry I took, more fun than the Metro, I think, and will land you on the rural side of the island, rather than the airport side:

Sorry, I meant to add, take the Star Ferry to Central, then go right to the Mui Wo pier, #7.

When we were there, we took the metro and then a cable car to Lantau - the cable car had amazing views, and I'd highly recommend it.

We took the metro and the bus out there. The bus ride was fine, actually quite scenic. Neither of us wanted to do the cable car.
If you want to see my experience and photos, here's my blog post about it.
