The place of refuge. Absolutely gorgeous, and easy to visit, especially for kids. I always recommend this place.
The Place of Refuge: Imagine you had just broken the sacred laws, the kapu, and the only punishment was death. Your only chance of survival is to elude your pursuers and reach the Pu'uhonua, a place of refuge. The Pu'uhonua protected the kapu breaker, defeated warriors, as well as civilians during the time of battle. No harm could come to those who reached the boundaries of the place of refuge.
National Park
Historical point of interest.
The historical park is relatively large, there are many things to see about the native Hawaiians. There are very many plants, there are beautiful sea views to see, and the people here are very enthusiastic.
