Cristo de la Concordia is a large statue of Jesus Christ that stands on San Pedro hill overlooking the city of Cochabamba in central Bolivia. The statue itself measures about 34.2 metres in height, with a taller total height when the pedestal is included.

The hilltop site functions primarily as a panoramic viewpoint over Cochabamba and the surrounding valley; visitors commonly use the cable car or the road to reach the statue and the summit area. On clear days the platform provides wide views across the city and nearby hills.

Construction of the monument was completed in the late 20th century and it was inaugurated to establish a prominent religious and civic landmark for Cochabamba. Since its completion it has been maintained as a public monument and tourist viewpoint.

The statue sits atop San Pedro hill immediately above the urban area of Cochabamba in the Cochabamba Department of Bolivia. The site is within the city limits and is the most prominent elevated landmark overlooking Cochabamba.

• Access and views: A cable car and a road provide access partway up San Pedro hill; the summit viewpoint offers panoramic views over the city of Cochabamba.
• Height: At 34.2 metres tall for the statue itself (about 40.4 metres including its pedestal), it is among the taller monumental statues of Jesus in the world.

Cristo de la Concordia overlooks the city of Cochabamba and is reached either by the city’s cable-car (teleférico) that serves the hill or by road. Taxis and local minibuses from Cochabamba city centre run up the access road to the statue; there is a short walk from the cable-car upper terminal or from the roadside parking to the statue plaza.

• Take the cable car up to the Cristo de la Concordia viewpoint if you want to avoid the long climb; the teleférico is the common, quicker way to reach the statue's terraces.
• Plan your visit for late afternoon into sunset for panoramic city views as daylight falls-midday sees the largest crowds and strongest sun.
• If you want photos above the city lights, check local operating hours: evening access is possible but can be limited on certain days or during liturgical events.
