hans in response to liquid's question: Can someone tell me more about the statue of Jesus Christ in Rio?(give a different answer) .
The 38m high statue called Cristo Redentor( Christ the Redeemer) looms large atop Corcovado, a 710m high summit sited within the Parque National da Tijuca. You can get there by car, by train. A taxi charges 20 US dollars for return trips with waiting time. At night, the brightly lit statue can be seen from every part of Rio.
