Photographer’s Note
Ahu Ko Te Riku at sunset on Rapa Nui. This Moai was restored in 1968. Being only a short walk from Hanga Roa it is a popular sunset spot

Beautiful and colorful sunset with a unique foreground! Rapa Nui is absolutely amazing!
By the way, this is not Moai Ko Te Riku, but a much smaller, "modern" copy of the ancient moais, which is located in a small garden with contemporary art, made by local artists. ;-) This area is very close to Ahu Tahai and Ahu Ko Te Riku.
Why this is not Ko Te Riku? The proportion of the knot on top of the "real" Ko Te Riku's pukao is different to this one (actually much smaller, compared to the size of the pukao). ;-)
