Did You Know?
Rapa Nui is about 2,075 kilometres from the nearest inhabited land, Pitcairn, and 3,500 from Chile. Its roughly 900 moai were carved between about AD 1250 and 1500, the largest weighing over 80 tonnes.
The clock: Hanga Roa keeps UTC−6, two hours behind mainland Chile, and follows Chilean daylight saving — so the island's clock changes on dates set 3,500 km away.
