Cristo Rei statue and the clouds

Cristo Rei is a 30-meter tall statue of Jesus built in 1957, inspired from the Cristo Redentor statue in Rio. Two other giant statues of Jesus are found on two other continents, in Lisbon and in East Timor. However, the tallest statue of Jesus in the world (33 m) is not found in a former Portuguese colony, but in Poland.
