10 Sacred & Religious Sites in Honolulu That You Shouldn't Miss
The mere mention of Hawaii is enough to prompt visions of grass skirts and colorful cocktails with tiny umbrellas. While you will find some kitsch in Honolulu, you’ll also find art museums, bike paths, and some of the most beautiful scenery in the world. Popular Waikiki Beach has soft sands and great surf. For majestic Oahu views scramble to the top of Diamond Head – a 350-acre volcanic crater. Historic structures like Iolani Palace and Ali'iolani Hale are worth a visit on a non-beach day.

This is a beatifiul church right off the Waikiki beach so it gets lots of visiting parishioners. We attended the Aasumption of Mary Mass and the priest who was visiting from the states did a wonderful homily. The story of St Augustine is a wonderful story by itself. We have attended Mass each time we visit. .

For a truly Hawaiian experience, even if you are not an Episcopalian, attend the Sunday 8 am hawaiian language service at this Cathedral. Very easy to access from Waikiki and near Iolani Palace and the Governor's Mansion if you are touring around Honolulu. We never miss it every time we go. The people are very friendly and hint hint sometimes the Royal Society is there to celebrate or commemorate a Royal's birthday! Fabulous piece of history

The temple and grounds provides an idyllic setting for contemplation, with tropical breezes, rustling palms, blooming lotuses and birdsong. Gregory Pai’s gentle voice and sage-like presence, combined with a profound knowledge of the dharma which he generously shares, takes meditation to the next level. With COVID driving the program online, his unique ecumenical approach continues to attract a wide following, including this Tibetan Buddhist.

Its such a beautiful Shinto shrine. Very peaceful among the busy chinatown chaos. I come here every New Year day for traditional blessings. Lines are long on that day. But so lovely
