"It is located on the opposite bank of Lisbon.Cristo Rei is one of the symbols of Lisbon and shows Christ with open arms, in the act of blessing the city.
The statue dates back to the 1950s and was built as a symbol of gratitude from the Portuguese people for having been spared the horrors of the Second World War.
👣How to get there: It can be easily reached by car by crossing the 25th of April Bridge or by taking a ferry to Cacilhas from Cais do Sodré and from there a bus will take you to the sanctuary .
🎟️Ticket cost:Entrance to the Cristo Rei complex is free and the €8 fee is only for those who wish to climb the tower and visit the viewing platform."

"See Lisbon's expanse along the River Tejo. The view from the foot of the monument is fantastic, but you can pay €6/€3 (adult/child) and an express elevator whisks you up the 82m to the monument's viewing platform. "

"✏️ It is a nice park with the statue of Jesus Christ in the middle at 25 meters high. You can take the elevator to get right next to the statue and admire the views. "
