Ekin Cheng escapes from the police on the "Lantau Link," the route connecting the airport on Lantau island with the rest of Hong Kong, which includes the Tsing Ma Bridge, the Kap Shui Mun Bridge, and the Ma Wan viaduct. In HEROIC DUO, the action takes place on the lower level of the Lantau Link and on Kap Shui Mun Bridge. A ride on the MTR to the airport allows everyone to experience the action, in an extremely mundane fashion.

Eric Tseng meets his mainland gang contacts under the shadow of the great Buddha of Po Lin Monastery, a greatly impressive if slightly tacky (There is a gift shop inside the Buddha) monument completed in 1993. The monastery is accessible by bus, which departs from the terminal directly across from the ferry pier and is well signposted.

At the opening of the film, the Triad bosses pay their respects before the Tian Tan Buddha (you know, the really enormous one) of Po Lin Monastery, completed in 1993. The Buddha is quite the gangster hangout. Accessible via bus from the Ferry Terminal.
