A unique culture in the middle of the Pacific
Rapa Nui, also known as Easter Island, is the most isolated inhabited territory in the world, possessing an ancient culture in the middle of the Pacific Ocean. In this mystical place are the Moai, gigantic stone statues whose construction is a mystery that endures to this day.
Among its main attractions are Rano Raraku, the quarry where the Moai were sculpted, and the Rano Kau volcano next to Orongo, the ceremonial site of the ancient cult of the birdman. The island also offers the beautiful Anakena Beach, ideal for rest and diving. In addition, the entire Rapa Nui culture comes to life in February during the vibrant Tapati festival.
