Monument
Cristo Del Pacífico
RXGC+7F9, Chorrillos 15066
Resin-and-concrete Christ statue on a coastal hill, funded by a construction firm later exposed in a bribery scandal.
This guide to the Cristo del Pacífico in Lima follows a resin-and-concrete Christ that the construction firm Odebrecht gave outgoing President Alan García as a farewell gift in 2011, unveiled above Chorrillos on the twenty-ninth of June. It traces what Limeños later learned about the company's dealings with Peru's government, and how the statue's name changed after the truth came out.
