Wandering around Easter Island, a traveler will most likely stumble upon some “ahu,” or raised stone platforms that often house moai statues. The island has 313 ahu, but only 125 of them actually hold the statues. The biggest – and most famous – of them is Ahu Tongariki, which 720 feet long and holds 15 moai. The ahu are spaced approximately a half mile apart from each other, creating an almost unbroken line encircling the island’s perimeter.
