 The Brazilian Lord by RTL by RafaelTheSecond
Once you are here you see that Rio is a sacred religion, it is an addiction, once you come here you start thinking about your next visit!
This head was made in Paris by a polish sculptor which I do not know the name!;)
So Brazil, Poland and France together in one same History!

 RIO DE JANEIRO by RTL by RafaelTheSecond
when you go to the Christ you can see how unique our city is, it is good to know that so many people in the world do appreciate Rio.
In the picture you can see the entrance of the Bay, two great landmarks when you approach the city from the Ocean, the Sugar Loaf in Rio's side and the Santa Cruz fortress in Niteroi!

It is impossible to conceive a trip to Rio de Janeiro without paying a visit to the statue of Christ The Redeemer. Located at the top of Corcovado Hill, it is Brazil’s most known image throughout the world. Every year, over 300,000 people visit the statue of Christ using the centenary Corcovado Train, the oldest tourist ride in the country.
The train dates back to 1884 which at the time was steam powered. Today the train runs on electricity and the journey time to the peak takes just 20 minutes and operates every thirty minutes.
The cost of a ticket is R$36.00 (round trip, plus 50% discount bonus on Naif Museum of Art ticket)
children under 5 years old go free and up to 12 years old only R$ 18, 00.

 Corcovado at Sunset by e_crowe
If you're lucky you might find some cute little monkeys on the way up!
You can pay a taxi to take you up and wait until you're finished!
If you're really adventerous I think you can hike up! Leave a Comment

 Corcovado - View Lagoa by MikeAtSeaLeave a Comment

Corcovado, located in the National Park of Tijuca was a must see. The Christ statue was built there in 1931. From the top the view was mesmorizing. Leave a Comment Address: National Park of TijucaDirections: Corcovado

 Corcovado statue photo
would be better in
morning. by glabah
If you go in the afternoon, the sun rotates behind the statue so that the front of the statue is in shadow. This doesn't create a very good photograph.
This photo, which is a detail of a photo on my Corcovado Railway Travelogue, illustrates the problem. It is an afternoon shot, and the sun has cast Christ in shadow.
This photo, by the way, looks acceptable on my slide film due to the way the slide projector lights up the slide. Print film and scanning the slide film results in a much darker image and would have been better under morning light. This would have been an even worse problem during a day with brighter sunlight. This was a partially cloudy day!! Leave a Comment
