CHRIST THE REDEEMER
Christ the Redeemer is a colossal statue (30 metres) of Jesus Christ in Rio de Janeiro. Christ the Redeemer is located at the top of the Corcovado Mountain. The Statue is the largest Art Deco-style sculpture in the world. The idea of building a Christ statue was first suggested in 1850 to honour
princess Isabel, the princess regent of Brazil but the idea was dismissed. It wasn't until 1920 that the idea resurfaced from the Catholic community and was finally accepted and put into practice. The construction began in 1922 and it was completed in 1931. It is an important tourist attraction that attracts 1.800.000 people per year. The record number of tourists in a single day was at Easter 2011, when 14.000 people went to see the statue.
