Why you should go: Just being in the same space where Hawaiian Monarchy once lived is surreal. Hear about how life was for Hawaiian royalty and walk the same halls they walked. I admit you have to be at least a little interested in history or else this will look like just another big building with old stuff in it.
I haven't been here in awhile so I don't have any personal experience info yet. I will update this post when I am able to go. To be continued...
