Christ Redeemer

The Christ Redeemer is located in Rio de

Janeiro, Brazil.

The Christ Redeemer stands 38 meters tall and was designed by

Heitor da Silva.

The Christ Redeemer was built in October

12,1931.

The Christ Redeemer was built because they made it a symbol of the city and of the warmth of the Brazilian people,

who receive visitors with open arms.

The Christ Redeemer cost $250,000.

The Christ Redeemer is made of pure stone.

The Christ Redeemer was built 38 meters of

pure stone.

I picked the Christ Redeemer because I

think it’s a very important part of the

nation and a very cool part.
