What travellers are saying
- pchnmainLA/OC924 contributionsI think this statue of King Kamehameha I might be one of the most iconic statues in the United States. Maybe it's because of TV shows, like Hawaii Five-0.
The first casting of this statue is located in North Kohala on the island of Hawaii. This second casting of the statue was erected here in 1883. The artist was Thomas Ridgeway Gould.
If you're taking an organized city tour, your tour bus might park and allow you to alight for a few minutes. More likely, it will stop to allow you to take pictures of this statue from the bus.
I was staying in Waikiki and rode a bicycle into this area so that I could tour and take photographs at my own pace. Sites I visited included: the State Capitol; St Andrew's Episcopal Cathedral; Honolulu Hale; Washington Place; the Hawaiian Mission Houses and Mission Memorial.
With reference to this statue specifically, taking photos can be a challenge. Depending on the time of day, there can be a lot of tourists milling about. And lighting varies, due to time of day and weather.
This site is worth visiting, simply because it such a nice statue, and carries such historic and cultural value.Written 25 August 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Brown_SamanthaKennewick, WA1,758 contributionsNot much time needed to visit this. They have railing put up around the flame and one homeless guy was sleeping on the bench nearby.
Stopped here before our Iolani Palace tour. Free and no time investment. A nice sculpture memorial.Written 30 August 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

Fasi Civic Center, this bell is a replica of the bell that is mounted at Urikami Cathedral in Nagasaki, Japan. The bell came from survivors of the atomic bombing of Nagasaki as a sign of reconciliation and was dedicated on 7 Dec 1990. Since the bell was installed, it has been rung every year in August, as well as on Martin Luther King, Jr. Day.Written 3 March 2017This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- pchnmainLA/OC924 contributionsOn September 4, 2022, officials with the Department of Parks and Recreation announced that Dr. Sun Yat-Sen Memorial Park would be closed for 6 weeks (minimum), as crews worked to rewire electrical lines.
Looking over the construction fence, it looks like the parks department will also use this time to refresh the park, too.Written 25 September 2022This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
