... the blue skies and glassy water leaves me a pure homeboy
Wow, it would be a once in a lifetime experience traveling over there to explore. Its so beautiful and the history is so intriguing.
I have been many pleases, and the water there was the clearest I ever seen. its been 30 years ago I was there onboard the USS Racine LST 1198
Es TOTALMENTE SORPRENDENTE como lo pudieron hacer en tan inaccesible lugar está INCREÍBLE tu vídeo👍😉
Thanks for the great video! I was fortunate enough to visit this amazing site years ago and it left me with so many questions in my mind after departing this stunningly beautiful island. I will never forget this place.
Thanks for the film. I went to Nan Madol all the way through the jungle and the channels of Temwen Island by foot. A very exciting adventure, especially because of the sizeably stingrays hidden in the sand of the shallow waters.
Good job guys. Watching it makes me feel like I am actually there walking around. Thanks.
My dream to visit the place hopefully.
just imagine the physical labor .
Absolutely astonishing.
Hey, this is amazing you guys. very impressed. there was something so eerie about this place.
Great video, nice perspective of the ruins. Thanks!
The questions is....
Where they get the stones...how they bring the stone....and how they build it
Thank you very much for sharing !
Enjoyed it great video
Merci , super vidéo !
It took the ancient people long they don't have the calendar they don't rush from the demand of time and they have the technology.
The Stones were formed and sliced in different shapes and sizes to fit according to the level and fittings.
A very interesting video. Thanks for uploading.
What a fascinating place! Hope to make it here someday. Those flights prices look steep though!! 😬
The doorways are small for a reason. Because when entering the kings house or just any Pacific islanders home its a sign of respect to kneel & crawl in.
Im a Pacific islander myself even though we now have bigger doors & doorways we still crawl in once we get into anyones door as a sign of respect.
Home sweet home...
Great video
The ones who built Nan Madol and the Vikings were the same people. Why they had short doors. There was a real account of a large sea serpent/dragon shipment alongside the Fijian Drua canoes from Fiji to West Katau then Katau to build Seun Nen Leng(reef of heaven)/ Nan Madol. That same idea of dragon/serpent boats were taken to Asia, America and Europe. Where the front long neck if their ship shaped like a dragon or serpent. But it was a real account where a real large sea serpent/dragon called Fiti Pul(Fiji Bul) by Pohnpeians., had the log basalt magmetic stones strapped on her back. While the rest of the magnetic stones were shipped by the Drua(Fijian double hulled canoes),from Moturiki reef Fiji to West Katau via Pohnpei Micronesia.
Names still lives on Moturiki island Fiji like Korovatu(stonefort), Korobaba(village built with structured fences), Vatulavelavesa(levitated sacred stones), Vatuwaqa levu(stones loaded on a big twin canoes), Vatuwaqa lailai(stones loaded on a smaller twin canoe),Delainawaqaibonu(on top of a serpent boat), Rabakanawa(ancestral name of Davetalevu Moturiki which was also the name of dragon in the Phillipines is Bakanawa)..Nakoronawa(floated village), Naivavada(a part of the Bakanawa canoe smaller im size than the Drua).Burotu( name of the Empire on the reef S.E of Moturiki, where the Nan Madol stones were shipped from). Burotu was also the 1st paradise land on the heart of Bulu(underworld beside Moturiki).
Which used to be seen as an island partly physical nd partly spiritual floated at the southern waters of Fiji. But the Burotu stone fort Empire was based on Davetalevu-Vunuku reef of Moturiki..Known as the Pulotu Empire by Polynesian scholars, which once ruled Fiji nd the Pacific islands from the 1st century after Noahs flood till it was flooded and shipped away in the 8th century AD.
During or within those decades of their reigned, they colonised the Pacific and the whole world started from Summeria, Persia, Greece, Egypt, Rome and finally to Anglo(England)/America known as the Vikings..Broken ancient potteries were even found on that Moturiki Fiji reef + a big black stone still sits on that reef to this day.
Also 17000 ancient potteries were found on dryland Uluibau Moturiki. Which was the highest number of potteries found on all the Lapita sites of the Pacific.Wrongly assumed to have came from Taiwan. But their progenitor was the pre-flood male child rescued by God after the flood at Burotu/Vuniivilevu beside Moturiki island fiji.
That was why Moturiki in the middle east of Fiji topped the whole Pacific as the highest number of Lapita potteries location. Instead of 1 of those west Pcific islands closer to Taiwan like Malaysia, Singapore, Phillipines, indonesia, PNG, Maluku, Anabau, Solomon or Vanuatu.
Out of that 17000 potteries of Moturiki, only 92 resembled the Lapita potteries of Fiji and the Pacific. Within that 92 it had covered the 4 migrational patteterns found incomplete on other Lapita sites of Fiji . So that means they were all lived together in Fiji at some point.
The rest of the 1608 potteries found on that 1 single site of Uluibau Moturiki were unmatched. Because they came through the Burotu Empires trades nd businesses from around tbe world. Moreover there were 89 Lapita sites in total on the Moturiki region. Their 90th site was that Burotu Empire stone fort on that Moturiki reef Fiji.
About 60 % of Nan Madol stones were found out scientifically to be magmetic and foreign stones to Pohnpei. While only 40% were taken from the Pohnpei quarry over the mountains of Pohnpeii. Those 60% magnetic stones were shipped from the Burotu Empire stone city of Davetalevu-Vunuku reef, Moturiki island Fiji.
I been there once, around 2004
Great video if you like this check out coral castle in Florida the most modern megalith and wonder how one man built it by himself
the stones are cut like wood, even the constructions looks like cabins
brah wah u guys doin climbing over nan douwas like that......hope u guys neva get sick
I always wanted to go there but I was in palpowe
The Stones came from South America. or that's is what i was told when I was there
I’m glad I’m pohnpeian. Pohnpei born Hawaii grown.
nice video
hello guys not fair , you guys didnt mention you were jumpers since you jump over wall instead of entrance opening jk nice video
How they make long stone like this
Where did the people go! That’s what I want to know
I'm 2.5 mins in.. I hope she has more than flip flops. I know the struggle of traversing in rough terrain only having flip flops.
Those times when you didn't know you were going on a Grand adventure so you don't come prepared.
I now try to stay prepared just in case.
damn true blue
place was build by egyptian faraohs when they used to come to colombia
Awesome place, good video.
It's silly though how folks say "we don't know how it was built".......it was built from trees that are fossilized now!
Hexagonal tree, mm.. 9:54
Great video ... was this part of some organised tour or just that someone in your group is familiar with the location? (I want to know how I can do this). Thanks.
Well, it's 3 months later, but I'm going to answer your question. By boss, John (the one driving the boat), took us out there one day because he knew how to get in the back way. Official tours will usually go through the front. We were working for MAHI International, which John is the president of.
I don’t know if it’s true, but there’s a rumor where foreigners came to look at this place and the structures. They had brought machines to pick up ONE of these huge stones, and the machine either broke or malfunctioned, then the day after, the operator of that machine either died or got sick.
It was an explorer/archeologist. He went to a part of the complex that is said to be haunted. That night, back at his camp, the people with him said he was hearing voices, and he died in his sleep.
Locals say they see lights on the island at night.
1:45 :-)))))) no amazement ;-)
I'm pretty sure they broke off chunks of the columnar basalt and stacked it up to make the walls. If I'm not mistaken, there is a location on the island where columnar basalt shoots up out of the island.
There are no bassalt colums near the structure. The closest, location, and where they assume the rock was quarried, is on the opposite side of pohnpei.
You are mistaken
i wanna visit this place. how big is the city over all from your experience?
Hey! Thanks for the comment. Sorry I suck at responding.
Were you asking about the size of Nan Madol or Pohnpei?
the size of the city exceeds 53,600 sq feet... a football field is about 48,000 square feet... hope that helps

Thanks very much, the place looks very interesting. Ive always liked the mystery of abandoned places on earth just like this one
kumwail men mella
11:24 is not a prison..it's a throne
yeah bruh...tell hem
I was wondering about that. I looked it up online later and I thought it said it was the kings place, but I didn't want to say anything to my boss. He's the one who lives there after all. :-P
mmmm whoever your boss is lmao.. I'm from there ... I believe what my grandparents told me.. and I ain't tryna make an argument about it
Yeah I get it. Thanks for setting the record straight. :-)
no I should be thanking you man.. really miss this place
Women being bad luck on boats is usually just about dudes wanting fishing to be their alone time.
I don’t know which is more pretty the island or the lady
Go to town, lots of pretty girls in the world.
no mosquito?
Oh, there are mosquitos. Lots of them! Just not at 10 o'clock in the blazing morning.
Im using my moms account and id have to ask the locals to go to that ghost town. Ik what im talking about but you people dk bout it.
I AM FROM THIS ISLAND (POHNPEI). WOMEN HERE KNOW HOW TO FISH JUST LIKE MEN. THERE IS NO SUCH SUPERSTITION.
I bet any of you guys to yell out NIPARTAK while in a complex!
What does NIPARTAK mean? I know words have powe,r but I want to know what they mean and what for....
Austronesians are Asians ....word derive from the word, " Isha, The One, The True Messenger"!
Wtf!!! Why y'all climbing these sacred places? Us locals don't disrespect this place like you Foreigners. You know what? Next time you come visit, ask your tour guide to take you swimming where it is prohibited to swim except for a particular clan. See what comes for you? It won't be a great white or tiger but it's bigger!!
human religious power is so strong that it can build anything including pyramids and so on.
si no saben comentar mejor no subir videos de esa preciosa zona
First of all, the term "Mehn wai" is not a slang. Second, where did you get your superstitious information that says woman on a boat is bad luck. You generalized it by saying Micronesian superstition. Which island in these thousands of islands has such superstition. Here in Pohnpei, there is no such superstition. Understand that Micronesia is a huge region in the pacific, just like our cousins, the Polynesians. I only ask that you haoles respect the local culture by giving credible accounts and no fake illusions of what we might be.
All was good until u put giants and nephilims and dragons.fuk it.u forgot aliens and jesus or god.
these guys made up those things its not bad thing for a women to be on a boat.
i think they misunderstood that with the other superstition where they say that it is bad luck to bring your wife with you when you are going to fish out at sea because then you will not get any fish
I can't wait to see feminists watch the first part of this video.
yoshi lorak i got horny
As must I love ancient ruins, the girl was the best part of the video.
Tease the girl then take tons of video of her while chewing gum, typical Americans. Body more important than her mind. At least she called you foreigners 🤣 Btw it's capital, not capitol.
