Excellent museum to explore, the most striking is the Moia which is located at the entrance, don't have to pay to get photos, I also recommend entering the Museum and learn of the Rapa Nui culture.

One of the best museum in South America. A must if you did not have a chance to visit Easter Island. This museum houses rare collections of artifacts from Easter Island. Moai Statute at the front and the three shrunken heads. Definitely worth while visiting.

Este museo tiene el Moai en la entrada que nos da la bienvenida. Podemos admirar las piezas de la cultura Rapa Nui. Y también Chile continental - del Norte Grande, Norte Chico y Zona Central y Mapuche y las Zonas Sur y Austral. Encontramos una sala dedicada a las culturas andinas con cerámica peruana donde se exhibe una muestra de cabezas jibarizadas procedentes de Ecuador. Y un segundo piso está dedicado a una muestra de historia natural con la fauna del ecosistema de la quinta región. En pocas palabras es imperdible lo recomiendo especialmente a los turistas. Por que Viña tiene también mucha cultura e historia que ofrecer.

This museum has the Moai in the entry that welcomes us. We can admire the pieces of the Rapa Nui culture. And also continental Chile - of the Norte Grande, Norte Chico and Central area and Mapuche and areas south and southern. We found a room dedicated to Andean cultures with Peruvian ceramic showcasing a sample of heads jibarizadas from Ecuador. And the second floor is dedicated to a sample of natural history with the fauna of the ecosystem of the fifth region. In a few words is missed especially recommend it to tourists. That vineyard also has lots of culture and history they offer.

Não entramos no museu, fomos apenas do lado de fora, é bem interessante poder conhecer um Moai de verdade, é o único verdadeiro fora da Ilha de Páscoa.
