One of the few highlights of old Hawaii still remaining\u00a0in Honolulu is Iolani Palace<\/strong>. \u00a0The palace was built in the 19th century as the royal residence of the rulers of Hawaii, beginning with King Kamehameha, ending with Queen Lili’uokalani (1893). \u00a0The building is known for its Hawaiian renaissance architecture and a quality statue of King Kamehameha which sits by the road in front of the Palace. \u00a0The site is now\u00a0open to the public as a museum.<\/p>\n

Of interest, it is the only royal palace in the United States.<\/p>\n
