But it was inhabited way before that. In the year 1000, the city of Hanga Roa, where present day tourists are welcomed by natives with flower garlands, received a group of Polynesian explorers who arrived and settled in the area they considered to be the middle of the planet, or \u201cthe navel of the world.\u201d The echoes of this civilization can be felt to this day, even though its culture has long disappeared. Its main legacy are the moai, which are giant sculptures that represent important figures, and no one knows exactly how they were transported. Declared a World Heritage Site by UNESCO in 1995, this is one of the most isolated places on the planet. There, the closest dry land that you can see is the Moon.<\/p>\n<p>After marveling at those mysterious stone sculptures, hop on a mountain bike and head up the Teravaka Volcano, one of three on the island, which has several small craters. Sunsets there are incredible. If you\u2019d prefer to walk, set aside a day for the trail that leads to the Rano Kau Volcano, which features exotic scenery combining huge rock walls and a placid freshwater lake below. Scuba diving lovers will find crystal-clear waters with great visibility to contemplate marine life as well as a 16.5-foot tall submerged moai and anchors lost by ships in the 20th century. If you still have some energy left, take a horseback ride and visit the dozens of caves there.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.expedia.com\/lp\/ms-flight-exp-us-latamairlines-chile\">Book Your Easter Island Get Away<\/a><\/p>\n<h2>Jewel of the Pacific \u2013 Valparaiso<\/h2>\n<figure id=\"attachment_58354\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-58354\" style=\"width: 1000px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-58354 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.expedia.com\/stories\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/200120_LATAM_Sernatur_Q4_21504_static_v2_1000x700.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1000\" height=\"700\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-58354\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Valparaiso \u2013 where inspiration surrounds you<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Bohemian and colorful, Valparaiso\u2019s maze of hills has long inspired poets and writers.
