Corcovado which means `hunchback` in Portuguese is a mountain in central Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. It is a 710-metre 2,329 ft granite peak located in the Tijuca Forest, a national park. Corcovado hill lies just west of the city center but is wholly within the city limits and visible from great distances. It is known worldwide for the 38-metre 125 ft statue of Jesus atop its peak, entitled Christ the Redeemer, which was voted as one of the New Seven Wonders of the World.
