There is a ‘best time‘ of the day to visit Christ the Redeemer statue on Corcovado Mountain in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.
1 – In the morning, when the sun illuminates the face of the statue (to take the best photos). (In the last case, the end of the afternoon is also fine [although not best] when the sun illuminates the right side of the statue).
2 – When the sky in the vicinity of Corcovado is cloudless. (There should be no huge and thick cloud on the way to the statue — clouds usually come from the North and from the West). A completely clear sky with no clouds near the statue is the absolutely best time to visit Christ the Redeemer statue.
3 – Before (best) or after the crowd of tourists on peak and extreme peak days (to avoid standing in line, waiting and spending more hours than necessary to visit Corcovado). (Thousands of tourists have a hard time to visit Christ the Redeemer statue every year, miss the best time and end up wasting a whole day!).
