7 Largest Statues in the World 4. Cristo-Rei (110 meters) Inspired by the famous Christ the Redeemer statue in Rio de Janeiro, the Cristo-Rei shrine was inaugurated in 1959 after a 10 year building period. The statue is about the same size as its famous model in Rio, 28 meter (92 ft) high, but it stands on a 82 (209 ft) meter tall structure in the form of a gate so the total height of the monument is 110 meters (361 ft). At the base of the statue is an observation deck providing panoramic views of the city of Lisbon. _ EurekaNielyn See more at: touropia/largest-statues-in-the-world/#sthash.w5vNcuUQ.dpuf
