Things to do in Hanga Roa

When I set foot on Easter Island, the sea breeze, wrapped in an ancient sense of loneliness, hit me. Looking down at the scattered Moai statues in the Rano Kau crater, those half-finished statues still maintained the posture of struggling out of the rock wall, as if time had suddenly frozen. At four in the morning, I squatted on Ahu Tongariki waiting for the sunrise. When the silhouettes of the fifteen Moai were dyed golden red by the morning glow, someone behind me sobbed softly - it was a sacredness that words cannot describe. The guide pointed to the mottled rock paintings behind the statues and said: "We call it the 'Cannibal Cave', but our ancestors didn't eat flesh, but memories." Finally, I stepped barefoot on the pink coral sand at Anakena Beach. The waves rolled the fragments of the statues over my ankles. Suddenly, I understood why the islanders said: "The Moai are not relics. They are just heading towards their hometown, always returning home."

Ranogo volcano is actually a dormant active volcano. The crater here has formed a volcanic lake. There are all kinds of strange plants growing in the lake. You can walk along the volcanic lake and feel the magical power of nature. It is this volcano that created Easter Island and created the world-famous cultural heritage.

This place is so magical. I had a chance to travel here because the ship I am working on had been here. It was a great opportunity since not a lot of people can go here since it’s very remote in the Pacific Ocean. The locals did a great job in maintaining the untouched beauty of the place

The Birdman Village site is the living site of the aborigines on Easter Island. These mysterious tribes are the creators of the mysterious stone statues on the island. In the living site, there are the foundations of the houses they built, as well as caves, and many archaeological discoveries of their daily necessities and tools at that time, which are very valuable for research and worth visiting.

Looking at the giant stone statues everywhere, the blue layers of the sea here are very rich, which is pleasing to the eye. The mobile phone can't take pictures... Although this place is not big, although there are only these fifteen stone statues, it feels very good

Easter Island is undoubtedly the most attractive area in Chile. It is more than 3,000 kilometers away from Chile. On such a seemingly isolated island, there are many large stone statues. One cannot help but wonder who created these statues.

To get to Ahu Te Pito Kura it is a 1.5 hour walk from where you park your vehicle, it is a very quiet spot with great views of Rapa Nui, it was a bit cloudy when you got to the top so wear clothing for drizzle or cover up from heavy clouds although it is hot. Horses are available for hire if you don't want to walk.

A beautiful island worth visiting? Love traveling and nature!
