The second largest Jesus statue in the world - Jesus Mountain in Vung Tau

#7月好去地方2025 Vung Tau Jesus Mountain ~ "Religion comforts the heart, and statues stand for cultural heritage" Vung Tau is a city located in southern Vietnam, close to the sea, with a view of the "South China Sea". To enjoy the beautiful sea view of Vung Tau, you need to stand on the shoulders of the Jesus statue. The shoulders can only accommodate one person. When you stand on the shoulders, "feeling the cool breeze and looking closely at the side of Jesus, I seem to feel a sense of tranquility and solemnity, and all the fatigue and troubles are swept away." I believe that all travelers who have experienced this should also feel this way! ! 🗿Statue Introduction: The statue of Jesus Mountain is the "tallest in Asia" and the "second-highest in the world". The tallest statue is the "Statue of Unity" in India; the third is the famous "Statue of the Redeemer" in Brazil. The total height of the statue of Jesus Mountain in Vung Tau is about 32 meters, and the outstretched arms are about 18.3 meters. There are 133 steps inside the statue. When you succeed in the challenge, you can stand on Jesus' shoulders and have a bird's eye view of the entire Vung Tau city. ❗️ 📕History: The statue was built in 1974, during the "Vietnam War". At the beginning, the US military built this place to cover up the fact that prisoners of war were abused and tortured. Therefore, it had no connection with religion when it was first built. Later, when the Vietnam War was coming to an end, the Catholic Church accepted the renovation of the statue. It took about 20 years to form the appearance that everyone sees now! ! In addition to being a well-known check-in spot, it is also an important place for Vietnamese Catholics to make pilgrimages. ❗️Notes: 1.
