Monument
About This Attraction
Christ the Redeemer is an iconic statue located in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. Standing at 98 feet tall with arms stretching 92 feet wide, it overlooks the city from the peak of the Corcovado Mountain. Visitors can reach the monument by train, car, or hiking trails, enjoying stunning views along the way. Christ the Redeemer opening hours are typically from early morning until late evening, allowing plenty of time to explore this world-famous landmark.
Made of reinforced concrete and soapstone, Christ the Redeemer was completed in 1931 and has since become a symbol of peace and Christianity for many around the world. The site offers panoramic views of Rio, including Sugarloaf Mountain and Copacabana Beach. To make the most of your visit, consider arriving early to avoid crowds and ensure you have ample time for photos and sightseeing. Remember to check local weather conditions, as visibility can vary greatly throughout the day.
