Rapa Nui (commonly known as Easter Island) is a mysterious and remote place. The nearest populated landmass is 3700kms away. It is only 117 square kilometres in size, and the locals call it the 'naval of the world'.
It was discovered on Easter day in 1722, from where it got its name. Today it is still a remote place, with only two flights a week. However, that makes it an even more interesting place to visit.
