Easter Island of Micronesia - Palau

If you want to see the 'Easter Island of Micronesia' check this archaeological site located in the state Ngarchelong, the northern most point on the main island of Babeldaob, where you'll find large basalt monoliths studded on a hillside. Their origin and purpose is unknown, but according to one legend the gods put them there to support a bai (men's meeting house) that held thousands of people. Some stones weigh up to five tonnes. Badrulchau is also a wonderful picnic area, with splendid views of the sea on both the Pacific Ocean and the Philippine Sea.
You can see Francis Toribiong, Simon Pridmore, & Sofie Hostyn looking and these massive mysterious stones. Photo by: Tim Rock (Palau Escape) 💃💃😊
