Posts Can you get to Christ the Redeemer in Rio de Janeiro if you use a wheelchair?
If so, are there any limitations (like you can go here and here, but this place only has stairs)?
According to the Accessible Rio website:
“About 10 years ago an extensive renovation was carried out, which installed elevators, accessible toilets and escalators to reach the feet of the statue, making it very accessible. Don’t be afraid of the escalators, because trained employees will assist you. If you use a power wheelchair, you may have to transfer to a manual chair (provided by the administration), climb the escalators, and then transfer back to your wheelchair.”
