拉帕·努伊国家公园，复活节 岛，智利

欢迎来到拉帕努伊岛，该岛也被称为智利的复活节岛，是世界上最偏远、最迷人的天堂之一。这座令人惊叹的岛屿以其标志性的摩艾石像而闻名，是一座拥有壮丽景观和丰富文化遗产的宝库。专家们对波利尼西亚人到来的时间众说纷纭，但许多研究人员认为应该是在8世纪左右。作为世界遗产的复活节岛占地超过17,000英亩，包括附近的四个小岛。在岛上，你可以欣赏到今天的图片所展示的迷人日出，探索矗立着宏伟雕像的火山口和郁郁葱葱的草地。

对这座岛屿的名字感到好奇吗？原住民称它为拉帕努伊，意思是“大拉帕”，指的是这片土地的地形与澳大利亚群岛的拉帕岛相似。荷兰探险家雅可布·罗赫芬是第一个访问该岛的欧洲人，他将该岛命名为帕斯奇-艾兰，即英语中的“复活节岛”，以纪念他在复活节当天抵达该岛。虽然复活节似乎离今天很遥远，但你全年都可以探索这个独特的世界遗产。深入了解其充满活力的历史，让这座岛屿用魅力征服你。

Rapa Nui National Park, Easter Island, Chile

Welcome to Rapa Nui, also known as Easter Island, one of the world's most remote and enchanting paradises, roughly 2,330 miles west of mainland Chile. Famous for its iconic moai statues, Rapa Nui boasts breathtaking landscapes and rich cultural heritage. Experts are divided on when the island's ancestral inhabitants first arrived from Polynesia, though many researchers suggest it was around the 8th century. Take in the mesmerizing sunrise featured in today's image and explore the striking volcanic craters and lush, grassy plains where the imposing statues stand. The World Heritage property of Easter Island spans more than 17,000 acres, including four nearby islets.

The island's original inhabitants call it Rapa Nui, meaning 'Great Rapa,' referring to the land's similarity to Rapa Island, in French Polynesia. Dutch explorer Jacob Roggeveen, the first European to visit, named it Paasch-Eyland, or 'Easter Island' in English, to mark his arrival on Easter Sunday.
