Jesus Statue in Rio in Brazil

One of the most famous landmarks of Rio is surely Christ the Redeemer, renowned for being a huge wonderful statue of Jesus Christ.  Built in the beginning of the 20^th century by Roman artist, Gheorghe Leonida. Today, it is one of the most magnificent monuments tourists who travel to Brazil are keen to visit.

Being more than 30 meters in height with the arms of the Christ stretching for around 28 meters and located at the top of the Corcovado mountain, this is really quite an astonishing piece of art. Never miss the chance to explore it while you are spending your vacation in Brazil
