Rio by Night

Rio de Janeiro by Night with Christ the Redeemer Over Looking the City.

Rio de Janeiro by Night with Christ the Redeemer Over Looking the City

I couldn't decide which photo I liked best so I uploaded both of these. Definitely one of the most beautiful cities I've ever been too. I love the way the light is bouncing off the Christ the Redeemer Statue into the clouds as if to say, Jesus the Light of the World.

Well, I finally found the real Christ the Redeemer Statue. It was hidden under the clouds way atop Corcovado Mountain.  The symbol of Christianity for all the world to see, the statue has become an icon for Rio de Janeiro and Brazil. It is also the largest Art Deco statue in the world and the 5ht largest statue of Jesus.

Christ the Redeemer

Well on my self guided tour of Rio, on a rainy morning I finally found the Christ the Redeemer Statue that over looks the magnificent city of Rio de Janeiro. I thought it would be bigger and I didn't know it was made of sand. Funny how everything looks different on TV.
