Rano Raraku, the moai quarry, at dawn - Rapa Nui - Easter Island - Isla de Pasqua

            An early morning view of the Moai still remaining in Rano Raraku, the quarry where most of the moai on the island were created. The quarry contains 397 moai in various stages of carving.  The stone is called lapilli tuff, hardened volcanic ash, found only in this location.  Completed moai were then transported to other parts of the island.  

This view was taken from the main road of the island.  The quarry was not yet open for tourism for the day.
