Cristo Redentor, Religious sculpture in Tihuatlán Municipality, Mexico.

The Christ the Redeemer sculpture stands 31.5 meters tall with extended arms measuring 20.5 meters wide on a hilltop 114 meters above Tihuatlán.

Master sculptor Teodoro Cano and his team completed the construction of this monumental structure in November 2007 after 18 months of meticulous work.

The sculpture reinforces Tihuatlán's status as the city of sculptures, featuring numerous artistic installations throughout the municipal territory.

Visitors can access the monument from Poza Rica, located 22 kilometers away, with several hotels offering accommodation and transportation services.

The structure weighs 750 tons and includes a head measuring 3.8 meters, with hands crafted in the Free Art Workshops under Master Cano's direction.
