The Statue of Christ the Redeemer is a 30-meter tall sculpture located in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. It was chosen as one of the New Seven Wonders of the World on July 7, 2007. This city landmark has attracted visitors from around the world. During weekends, it is almost impossible to see the end of the ticket purchasing line. Sometimes, the line itself is seen as an attraction, drawing many people who wish to take photos of it.
