Christ the Redeemer is a statue of Jesus Christ in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil; considered the largest Art Deco statue in the world. It is 30 metres tall, not including its 8 metres pedestal, and its arms stretch 28 metres wide.

It would be so incredible to visit this statue because of its message and the experience you wold have after seeing such a memorable site.








There are also many activities you could do in your spare time witch include:
Paragliding Lessons
Copacabana Palace Spa
Samba Dance Lessons
The Zoo-The zoo is very inexpensive to visit!
Shopping

And a whole bunch of other wonders you will find in Rio.

If I ever went to Rio, I think I would want to go to a dance club. I love music and I think it would be a fantastic experience.

















Money-Wise
You can get coconut water for R$3.00-4.50 (which is about $1.62 Canadian)
You could eat at the Antiquarius. Prices range from $0-103 Canadian
Money is counted in Real: 1 Real is worth 0.46 Canadian.



This is a picture of Antiquarius. It's a very nice, calm place.










To me, Rio is the most amazing place on Earth.
