Rio, besides being one of the most famous tourist sites in the world, is actually fun to visit and enjoy the train ride with tourists almost from every country in the world, intermingling, sharing experiences and trying all sorts of funny positions to get the best possible capture for their photos!! Great fun indeed!! Christ the Redeemer symbolizes the pain and also comes across as a loving father. This is a nice place to take a look at the wonderful city of Rio de Janeiro. Although the statue is now one of the New Seven Wonders of the World made of soapstone, high up on Corcovado Mountain, this Art Deco Masterpiece is something which must be experienced! Even the journey to the statue is awesome and the views from the top are spellbinding and breathtaking! This is very popular in the summer months. Morning is the best time of day for pictures as the sunlight hits the front of the statue giving it a glorious aura. So come over and get the feel of being truly blessed while on holiday.
