No tour of Honolulu is complete without a visit to the King Kamehameha Statue, which stands proudly in front of the Hawaii Supreme Court, also famously known as the Hawaii Five-0 Headquarters. You’ll learn about King Kamehameha’s unification of the Hawaiian Islands and how his influence is still felt today.
