Easter Island, Remote volcanic island in Pacific Ocean, Chile.

The triangular landmass spans 23 kilometers in length and 11 kilometers in width, featuring three extinct volcanoes and steep coastal cliffs.

The Polynesian settlers reached the island around 1200 CE and constructed nearly 1000 stone statues known as moai across the territory.

The island retains strong Polynesian traditions through music, dance, and art forms, while managing influences from South American mainland culture.

Visitors require a national park entry ticket valid for five days to access archaeological sites, with separate rates for Chilean citizens and international tourists.

The island holds the distinction of being the most geographically isolated inhabited location, positioned 3,512 kilometers from continental Chile.
