Christ the Redeemer

Cristo Redentor

Rio de Janeiro, Brazil

Completed in 1931 atop Corcovado Mountain at 710 meters, Christ the Redeemer stands 30 meters tall with arms spanning 28 meters. Voted one of the New Seven Wonders of the World in 2007, the Art Deco statue watches over Rio with outstretched arms — one of the most recognizable images on earth.
