Hawaiian Royalty
King Kamehameha
Grand Stairway
Honolulu, Hawaii
The Iolani Palace is very impressive with it’s tall ceilings and large rooms. Here is where Hawaiian Royalty lived, the Kings and Queens of the past.
The entryway with it’s grand stairway was a perfect place to put my feet up and relax! And yes, even my flipflops had to be covered! ☺️

Iolani Palace
Honolulu, Hawaii
In all the years that we have come here to Hawaii, we have never gone to the royal palace, so, we decided it was time to go.
It is a beautiful building that shows the grace and charm of the Hawaiian people.
I was amazed that for the 1800’s it was so modern. The Iolani Palace had electric lights before the White House and before Buckingham Palace, to me that is AMAZING! Way out here on the Hawaiian Islands they had electricity that early. The lights turned on for the first time at the Iolani Palace on July 21, 1886, wow! GO HAWAII!
Note: The flag is have mast because of the tragedy in Dallas, Texas last week!
