A couple of places, in my opinion.
1) The destruction of the "temple" which represented Jewish law and the temple being rebuilt in three days (i.e. Jesus now represents the new law).
2) The big one for me is the tearing of the curtain leading to the altar, which (according to Jewish law) separated man from God.
Without breaking the book out, I cannot recite actual verses from memory. If you peruse the end chapters of the gospels you will find this and more.
