CHRIST THE REDEEMER - BRAZIL 🇧🇷 The next stop on our Seven Wonders of the World Series is one of Brazil's most iconic symbols, the Art Deco styled statue of Jesus Christ in Rio de Janeiro. Christ the Redeemer is 98 feet tall and has a 26-feet tall pedestal. Its arms stretch 92 feet wide. The 635 metric ton statue, made of soapstone and concrete, is located atop the 2,300 feet tall Corcovado mountain. It’s hard to comprehend the sheer size of this creation without seeing it in person, so who’s up for a trip to Brazil 🇧🇷?!?
