Waikīkī Kauhale O Ho‘okipa

We are working with Native Hawaiian Hospitality Association (NaHHA) with the Waikīkī – Kauhale O Hoʻokipa Scenic Byway (recognizing ‘roads that tell stories.”)  Although many of the sites and structures of Waikīkī from the ancient times are long gone, many of these pre-contact Hawaiian places, environment, people, history and culture still convey the sense of earlier importance through continued use of original place names for areas, streets, surf sites, symbols, etc and other references to these people, places and times.  Though gone, they are not forgotten and continue to express the ways of the past.  Letters and Statements of Support for the ʻĀina Mauna Legacy Program were received from:
