Sugarloaf Mountain (Portuguese: Pão de Açúcar) is a peak situated in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, at the mouth of Guanabara Bay, on a peninsula situated on the Atlantic Ocean. Rising 396 meters above the harbour, its name is said to refer to its resemblance to the traditional shape of concentrated refined loaf sugar. It is known worldwide for its cableway and panoramic views of the city.
Corcovado, meaning "hunchback" in Portuguese, is a mountain in central Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. The 710-metre (2,329 ft) granite peak is located in the Tijuca Forest, a national park.
Corcovado lies just west of the city centre but is wholly within the city limits and visible from great distances. It is known worldwide for the 38-metre statue of Jesus at its peak, entitled Cristo Redentor or "Christ the Redeemer". (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Corcovado)
