Visiting the statue of Christ the Redeemer in Rio de Janeiro was a spiritual and enchanting experience. When I reached the summit of Corcovado Mountain, I found myself humbly standing in front of the majestic statue that grandly crowns the city at its peak. The view from the top was captivating.
There, she enjoyed the open views of Rio de Janeiro and its surrounding areas.
I felt happy.
Going out and traveling always improves our overall mood.
And I stood beside the statue that symbolizes faith and tolerance. I took souvenir photos and meditated on the beauty of the architectural and engineering art of this magnificent statue. Visiting the statue of Christ the Redeemer was an unforgettable experience because it left me with contemplation and inspiration in front of the beauty of this world and faith. 🙏

The statue is located on top of Corcovado Mountain, which overlooks Rio de Janeiro, making it a must-see for anyone visiting this beautiful city. You can see it from pretty much anywhere in Rio.
Since becoming one of the New 7 Wonders of The World, the Christ has attracted more visitors every year, becoming one of the most visited attractions in the world.
I highly recommend getting your tickets in advance online.This will save you a ton of time and stress since lines can be very long at the entrance.
For adults, R$61 at low season and R$74 at high season.

Christ the Redeemer 🇧🇷
Christ The Redeemer statue is one of the most famous landmarks in Rio de Janeiro and is a fascinating attraction.
To get to the statue, you need to take a tram where there is a ticket office that you can easily buy tickets from. The staff speak multiple languages and it takes 20 minutes to reach the top. On the way up, you can see great views of the city and when you are at the top, there are many shops, cafes and restaurants as well as toilets too. All of the signs are in English too which is very helpful.

Breathtaking
You know this is going to be spectacular, but nothing prepares you for how spectacular the views are of this magnificent city.
I went up late afternoon to capture the views transitioning from day time into night time. There are sweeping views of Sugar Loaf, Copacabana, Ipanema, The Laguna.
As night began to fall the Christ figure transitioned into the colours of the Brazilian flag.#riodejaneiro
English guy
It will be a mistake if u go there after afternoon!
The reason why I said: “It will be a mistake if u go there after afternoon!” Because it’s too many people that it will not make u enjoy plus very hard to do picture, so I recommend to go in early morning

World’s Heritage Christ The Redeemer
A must visit place when in Rio De Janeiro. Be there as early as possible starting at 7.20am for the train ride from Corcovado to Christ The Redeemer to avoid the crowd. If weather is not good, you may also postpone the visiting time. The train ride is around 10 mins up the hill and you may choose to walk the stairs or take the elevator to the statue. It is a breathtaking view of the Christ. Entrance ticket is around Real 95 per person.
Definitely worth a visit while in Rio!

One hundred people to Rio, a place where one hundred people will come: Monte Cristo. This is the scene that I think of Rio first when I think of it. Today I finally stood here!
This 38-meter-high statue of Christ stands on the 700-meter-high Hump Mountain and overlooks the entire city of Rio with his loving eyes. No matter where you are in the city, you can see Monte Cristo as long as you can see the blue sky.
This is one of the new Seven Wonders of the World. People who are always on the pilgrimage can't even find a scene behind no one, but you can't resist the charm here! Standing at the feet of Jesus Christ, I can feel the famous Brazilian classic: God spent six days to create the world, and the seventh day created Rio! ##

Mount Jesus, also known as Camelback Mountain, Monte Cristo, officially known as Corcovado Mountain, is located in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil's second largest city. The hill is located at an altitude of 2310 feet and a height of 709 meters. It is the most ideal place to visit Rio de Janeiro. Christ the Redeemer statue. Although the weather is usually rainy but the air quality is very good. The buildings and roads under the mountain are clearly visible, which really makes me happy. The image of Christ in the rain did not appear to be desolate because of the rain. Instead, it became taller and taller, sheltering this land he loved and every one of his people. Coupled with the light of the night and the refraction of the clouds, a more magnificent image of Christ appeared in the sky, and I am afraid that this can only be seen in such bad weather.

The small train on the top of Monte Cristo is quite famous. Although the driver of the shulter bus is in the business under the mountain, most of the visitors will take the N step, the team will be half an hour, and try the 65 reais. The taste of the shuttle on a green mountain forest road.
Also attracted me is the red in the setting sun, which sent me to the feet of Christ to feel the sanctuary of God.
