Christ the Redeemer
Christ the Redeemer is an iconic Art Deco statue perched atop Corcovado Mountain in Rio de Janeiro, overlooking the city, beaches, and Guanabara Bay. Standing 98 feet tall (including pedestal) with a wingspan of 92 feet, it gazes over Tijuca National Forest and the Atlantic Ocean. Visitors reach it by scenic cog train or road through lush forest, then take in panoramic views from the summit platform. Completed in 1931, the monument symbolizes peace and Brazilian hospitality, offering memorable photo ops, sunset vistas, and a sense of awe.
