Hiking
The "Morro do Cristo (Mound of Christ)" is located on the shore of All Saints Bay between the districts of Ondina and Barra. At its summit there is a viewpoint and a figure of Christ amidst parkland. Standing on a seven meter high pedestal clad in dark marble, the 2.8 meter tall Carrara marble statue is the work of Italian artist Pasquale de Chirico in 1920. It was first installed on a nearby hill and in 1967 on brought to their current location.

Hiking
Morro do Cristo, one of the attractions of the charming Barra district, is a meeting point for Bahians and a mandatory stop for tourists. The space is a naturally formed seaside hill, covered with green grass and with panoramic views of the entire length of Praia da Barra and Forte de Santo Antônio. As the name suggests, Morro Cristo is home to the famous Christ the Redeemer statue, carved from Carrara marble by Italian artist Pasquale De Chirico.
