Hey fellow travel enthusiasts! I’ve been dreaming about visiting Christ the Redeemer in Rio for ages, and I’m finally planning a trip there next year. The views from Corcovado Mountain sound absolutely incredible – I mean, [panoramic vistas of Sugarloaf Mountain and those famous beaches](https://www.reddit.com/r/Blogging/comments/9m4d7c/what_makes_a_travel_blog_interesting/)? Sign me up! But I’m curious, for those who’ve been, what’s the best time of day to visit? I’ve heard sunrise is magical, but I’m wondering if sunset might be even better for photos. And speaking of photos, any tips for capturing the sheer scale of this 125-foot marvel? I’m determined to get that perfect shot without it looking like every other tourist pic. Oh, and while we’re at it, any insider tips on beating the crowds or [hidden gems](https://www.reddit.com/r/solotravel/comments/15kpaj7/whats_your_personal_etiquette_for_posting_travel/) near Corcovado that aren’t in the guidebooks? Can’t wait to hear your experiences!
