The 'Moai' of Easter Island







It still completely blows my mind, that in one of the remotest locations on earth, it's possible to encounter 887 of these (Moai) You don't always realise how big these things actually are, what with 2 thirds of their actual height being below ground level. In my view making them even more mysterious.
