It is the 5th largest statue of Jesus in the world, started in 1963, by architect Bruno Innocenti. He finished the 70 foot tall, Carrara marble likeness in 1965 and it watches over the seaside cliff town of Maratea with grace and humility.
We were treated to one of the best sunset vistas we have ever witnessed. It was the perfect example of our Christmas this year being about the gift of experiences.
