It’s one of the most remote inhabited islands in the world, boasts 887
monolithic stone “heads” and is a cautionary tale of the effects of
overpopulation and depletion of resources. Easter Island could easily
evoke the inner mythbuster in even the most empty-headed of visitors.
Within its vast open-air museum of archaeological marvels, perhaps
nothing is more famous than the mysterious moai, which were transported
throughout the island from a single quarry site using an as-yet unknown
method that has left historians scratching their heads for decades.
Known alternatively as Rapa Nui or Isla de Pascua, this triangular speck
in the middle of the Pacific Ocean is as beguiling a place as you will
find anywhere on earth.It’s one of the most remote inhabited islands in the world, boasts 887
