Christ of the Ozarks [Arkansas, March 2010: Eureka Springs]

Christ of the Ozarks

Christ of the Ozarks is a huge statue built on a mountain near Eureka Spring, Arkansas. The statue was proposed and built as the centerpiece of a proposed religious theme park which was never fully realized, but an outdoor performance of “The Great Passion Play”, styled after that of Oberammergau, Germany, is staged four or five nights a week from the end of April through the end of October in a nearby 4,100-seat amphitheater.

I enjoy riding bicycles all over -- city streets, suburbia, rural roads, gravel roads, dirt roads, rail-trails, and singletrack. I love exploring the countryside and finding the interesting and historical treasures hidden in plain site.
