Rano Raraku is commonly known as the “Moai Factory” with hundreds of abandoned statues scattered around.

Some of the iconic Moai statues of Easter Island, half buried in the soil near the quarry at the extinct volcano of Rano Raraku. This quarry is known as the birthplace of the Moai and the Moai seen here had begun their journey to their respective Ahu (stone platforms) but for some reason never made it any further.The Moai were constructed around five or six hundred years ago and represent the islanders' ancestors. They were all toppled after a period of tribal warfare broke out, though a number were restored in the twentieth century.

Rano Raraku is a volcanic crater formed of consolidated volcanic ash, or tuff, and located on the lower slopes of Terevaka in the Rapa Nui National Park on Easter Island. It was a quarry for about 500 years until the early eighteenth century, and supplied the stone from which about 95% of the island's known monolithic sculptures (moai) were carved.
