The Only Royal Palace in America
Visit the Royal Palace of Hawaii's Monarchs and learn of Hawaii's history as a Monarchy, a Republic, a Territory, and, finally, as a State.
- Completed in 1882, the Palace included "modern" conveniences such as indoor plumbing and one of the first telephones in the islands.
- See where Hawaii's last reigning Monarch was imprisoned for eight months in the second floor of her own palace.
- Learn how in 1893 the United States overthrew the rightful Hawaiian Government and made the islands a U.S. Possession.
This is a wonderful historical tour that unveils much of the history of Hawaii's successive governments.
