EASTER ISLAND, the TONGAN (Langi) Pyramids and platforms for the MOAI (STATUES)
SUBSCRIBE: - Here's an exclusive study of the Ahu (platforms) of Easter Island (where the Moai, the statues, stand on) and for the first time one historian (ie, I) dares to draw parallels between the Royal Tongan pyramids of Tonga in Lapaha and the later Ahu (after the 13th century) of Easter Island. Conclusion: The Tongans have influenced the architecture and layout of these platforms... Vic Stefanu, vstefanu@yahoo.com
A Tourist's Guide to Nuku'alofa, Tonga
Part 5 of my South Pacific Trip.
After a night in an airport hotel in Fiji, I jet off to the Kingdom of Tonga. The capital, Nuku'alofa is a sleepy town with a fair smattering of palm trees, foraging pigs and piglets and plenty of (friendly) stray dogs. There's also some big fruit bats.
My full day in Tonga happened to be a Sunday, a day where everything closes except for the churches. So I visit one and listen to some singing before catching a ferry over to Pangaimotu Island.

Biking
Tongatapu Island is very flat and ideal for exploring by bike. There are cycle rentals in Nuku'alofa and some guesthouses also provide bikes for their guests to rent.
Day Trips to Offshore Island Resorts
There are daily excursions from Nuku'alofa to the offshore islands, where you can relax on the island’s beautiful beaches, join in the daily activities then return later in the day. The islands are very close – it is only a 15 minute trip to Pangaimotu (the nearest), and less than an hour to Royal Sunset (the farthest). There are bars and restaurants available.
Diving & Game Fishing
There is superb diving in the islands north of Nuku'alofa. Two game-fishing charter companies also operate out of Nuku'alofa - Royal Sunset Fishing and Dive Tours and Blue Water Fishing Charters. The fishing grounds are off the northern coast of Tongatapu Island.
Heilala Festival
A week-long celebration coinciding with the King's Birthday in July, and featuring parades, workshops, a beauty pageant, music arts, feasting and sports competitions.
Island Tours
Several companies offer tours around the island and the Tongan National Centre also has a cultural tour and lunch (bookings essential).

Surrounded by large lawns and giant Norfolk pines, Tonga's famous Royal Palace dominates the seafront.

Tongan sovereigns, their wives, husbands and close relatives have been buried at the tombs at the Mala'ekula (a large park area) since 1893. It's not open to the public but there is a reasonable view from the fence.
