The magic and mystery of the Moai statues is ubiquitous on Easter Island. That feeling intensifies in the air as you stand with 15 of the tallest Moai statues at Ahu Tongariki at 3am, staring up at thousands of stars in the dark sky while 2300 miles from any other land.
Location: Easter Island, Chile
