    I felt a resounding sense of respect standing by the statue of King Kamehameha V. I don't know his story, but the design and placement of the sculpture makes it a sight to see while visiting. During the daytime people put out a box of nuts tied to fortunes that bring good luck. It's a fun location to stop at and I highly recommend it.

    Top class traditional court facility we could see live. The Victorian furniture and style is showcased in every inch of the court building. Lot of old pictures which are historic are displayed for visitors to see.

    You've probably seen it in Hawaii FIVE 0. Home of the Hawaii Supreme Court. Across from Iolani palace. Has a small museum on the first floor. Very old and well upkept building that is part of Hawaii's history.

    We purchased the chamberlain's tour and enjoyed it immensely. The guide, in character and period clothes, was entertaining and informative.

    Definitely worth visiting. Parking is kind of expensive and don't plan on spending too long here as it doesn't take terribly long to see what there is to see. Definitely worth a visit.

    The building behind the King Kamehameha statue is said to be a courthouse... Although I was nervous, I was able to tour the inside for free. There will be a baggage inspection (X-ray). I knew it was an old building, but it had a very classical atmosphere. It also served as a court, so there was also a room where judgments were handed down.

    I bring students to have an educational tour and experience mock trial here all the time. Ahukini Fuertes, the education specialist is a passionate staff who takes his time to answer any questions thoughtfully and honestly. He also helped us connect with judges to speak with the fellows. If you are part of an education group, I believe this is a great curriculum to add in your field trips. Even as members of the public it is a fun place to visit to learn about the judicial history of Hawaii in this historic landmark. There will be a security clearance before you enter the building.

    The museum was closed due to Covid last week (Sep 2021). You can still take pictures outside
