Easter Island is one of the most isolated inhabited islands, and it is a Polynesian island in the southeastern Pacific Ocean. The first recorded European contact with it was on April 5, 1722, and that day was Easter Day. This is the reason why people call it Easter Island.
The island is rich with cultural interest.-For example, people in the island use original language, which is called Rongorongo. In addition, the island is famous for moai. Now the population of the island is 4000, and the number of moai is1000. There are many kinds of it. In 1995, the island was registered on UNESCO’s World Heritage list. So many people who want to see moai visit there, and the number of them is about 65000 every year. Many researchers also visit there, but there are still many mysteries about the culture.
Because I want to learn the culture and history there, I want to go there sometime.
I'm interested in moai and the mysteries. Thanks to your blog, I could learn many things about Easter Island. I didn't know why the island is called Easter Island before I read this blog. The more I learned the island, the stronger my feelings that I want to go there became.
返信削除I have not had a lot of imformetion about Easter Island and I learen a lot from this blog. I am interested in Easter Island and moai, too. I would like to go there someday.
返信削除I learned many things thanks to your blog, too.
返信削除I have been wondered, "Is Easter Island blongs to a nation?" and "How many moai exist there?". I was surprised to know the number of moai there. Why did people wanted to make such a large number of moai...?
Because there is only moai as for my knowledge of the Easter island, I want also to learn the culture and the history. The regrettable one is that there are a lot of tourists who play a trick to the important cultural asset like moai.
