Geocache Description:

* Check Travel Warning/Advisory information regarding East Timor *

Cristo Rei (Christ the King) is a statue at Cape Fatucama, approximately 6 km east of Dili. At 27 metres (88.6 feet) high, it is believed to be the second largest statue of Christ in the world, second only to the ‘Christ the Redeemer’ statue at Rio de Janeiro in Brazil.

To reach the statue, visitors climb a long flight of steps. Along the way up to the statue, you will pass 15 Stations of the Cross. There are a number of places along the stairway where you will also enjoy the panorama West towards Dili, or along the coast to the East.

When you reach the statue and have admired the view, count the number of bent columns supporting the globe on which Jesus is standing. Add this number to the decimal portion of your given South coordinate in order to locate the cache.

The cache is a small plastic container hidden beneath rocks in a sheltered location. Watch for ‘Muggles’ as the location is well patronised.

Remember to check Travel Warning/Advisory information regarding East Timor.
