Rio de Janeiro — Christ the Redeemer live

Rio de janeiro - Cristo redentor live

Local time UTC-3Checked 0 viewsHDNature

This live camera points toward Christ the Redeemer, the Art Deco statue that overlooks Rio de Janeiro from Corcovado mountain. Watch the city and its famous landmark in real time before you plan a visit or simply to check the mood of the bay.

The landmark and its setting

Christ the Redeemer stands on the summit of Corcovado, a granite peak inside Tijuca Forest, one of the largest urban forests in the world. The statue, completed in 1931, is one of the best-known symbols of Brazil. From its base the view stretches over the neighbourhoods of Rio, the lagoons, and the Atlantic coastline. The city below is set between mountains and sea, which gives it its distinctive skyline.

What to watch and when

Depending on the view, you may see the statue against changing skies, drifting cloud over the forest, or the city lights as evening comes on. Clear mornings tend to offer the sharpest distant views, while afternoon clouds often build over the peaks in the warmer months. Watching around sunrise or sunset is popular with visitors who want softer light on the figure.

Climate and getting there

Rio has a tropical climate with hot, humid summers and milder, drier winters, so the most comfortable months for a visit are generally from April to June and from August to October. Summer brings heavy rain showers that can briefly hide the summit. Visitors usually reach Corcovado by the cog railway or by road vans. Nearby cameras on this network include Copacabana and Santos Dumont airport, which help you see the wider city.
