Cristo Luz

Christ Light (Cristo Luz) is a monumental statue of Jesus Christ in the Brazilian seaside resort Balneário Camboriú.

Its design was inspired by the Christ the Redeemer statue in Rio de Janeiro, although Cristo Luz is five meters shorter (33 m tall). The statue portrays Jesus holding a circular broad-brimmed hat at his left shoulder. The hat symbolizes the sun, and it houses a spotlight which shines out over the city. Colorful lights illuminate the Cristo Luz at night, and it also has multicolored lights in its body that shift and change.
