A new statue of Christ is being built in Brazil’s city of Encantado.

Statue

It is said that the new statue will be even taller than the famous Redeemer statue in Rio de Janeiro.

Christ the Protector in the city of Encantado will be 43m high with its pedestal, making it the world’s third tallest Jesus statue.

A head and outstretched arms were added to the structure last week, which was started in 2019.
