Description

Puna Pau is a fascinating quarry on Easter Island from where red rocky material was extracted to create the famous pukao - the stone 'hats' adorning the moai.

This place full of secrets of the ancient Rapa Nui civilization allows you to understand the advanced stone working techniques used by the ancient islanders. Walking through this historic area, you can admire the unfinished pukao and the panoramic view of the surrounding area.

For lovers of archaeology and history, this is a must-see when exploring Easter Island.
