Review:
One of the most recognized landmarks in the world, Christ the Redeemer is an art deco statue of Jesus Christ that stands over 100 feet tall. The statue’s arms stretch over 92 feet wide, and altogether weights over 635 metric tons. The statue is a recognized symbol of Christianity all over the world and is a cultural icon in Brazil. Visitors who head to Brazil on vacation shouldn’t leave without a stop at the magnificent site. There are many tour companies that will take you to the site and provide background information on the art and the statue’s history, though many visitors prefer to explore the site themselves.
