... be. Rapa Nui ๐Ÿ—ฟ๐Ÿ—ฟ๐Ÿ—ฟ, as described in the film of the same name, is probably one of the most mysterious places I've been to before. Incredibly unique and extremely memorable and spiritual too.

An ahu is a ceremonial site on Easter Island that forms the structurally manifested, spiritual link between the world on this side and the other. The complex is endowed with high spiritual power (mana) and inviolability (tapu), but is also a symbol of political power. It usually consists of a stone platform with monumental stone statues (moais), to which a sloping ramp leads, and a leveled, rectangular area as a forecourt for ritual celebrations. So far, 255 Ahu are known to have been in different states of preservation on Easter Island, 164 of them with one or more sculptures.

Have a nice day!
