    The Nuʻuanu Pali Lookout is a breathtaking wind-swept cliffside vista on Oʻahu, offering panoramic views of Oʻahu's windward coast and the towering Koʻolau Mountains. This historic site marks the 1795 Battle of Nuʻuanu, where King Kamehameha I secured Oʻahu, forever changing Hawaii's history. At 1,200 feet elevation, the lookout is famous for its powerful trade winds, misty rain showers, and dramatic cloud-covered cliffs. The lush, jagged terrain below—once an ancient Hawaiian trail—adds to its wild beauty. Just a short drive from Honolulu, the Pali Lookout provides a quick escape into nature and history, though strong gusts often make it a short but unforgettable stop.

  • The Byodo-in Temple Hawaii (Pass by)

    The Byodo-In Temple, nestled at the foot of the Koʻolau Mountains in Oahu’s Valley of the Temples, is a stunning, non-practicing Buddhist temple built in 1968 to commemorate the 100th anniversary of Japanese immigrants in Hawaii. Modeled after a 950-year-old temple in Uji, Japan, it features a breathtaking Phoenix Hall, a large reflecting pond filled with koi, lush gardens, and a giant golden Buddha statue. Surrounded by serene landscapes and ringing with the tones of a sacred bell, the temple offers visitors a peaceful retreat and a glimpse into Japanese culture and spirituality. Tickets are included.
