once at the top of the corcovado mountain, where the statue of christ is set, the views are nothing short than amazing.

the front views include a direct line of sight to the sugar loaf (pão de açúcar) and the morro da urca, in addition to the botafogo bay, niterói and the shoreline of rio de janeiro's lake region (baixadas litorâneas).

on the side, a perfect view of lagoa rodrigo de freitas, ipanema and leblon becomes even more amazing at sunset.

facing the back of the statue, the tijuca forest appears, as well as the iconic pedra da gávea and the dois irmãos.
