ʻIolani Palace
- Landmark
- Regional draw
- Honolulu
ʻIolani Palace introduces visitors to the Hawaiian monarchy through the restored royal residence in central Honolulu.

The building offers an important setting for learning about Hawaiʻi's political history, with interiors and interpretation that give the visit a different focus from a general sightseeing walk.
Choose a tour format in advance and follow the palace's guidance on arrival times and belongings. Interior visits require more planning than a look at the grounds. Leave time to listen to the historical interpretation and consult current accessibility information before selecting a tour.
