Q: What are the best places to discover the arts and culture of Kailua-Kona?

Culture enthusiasts will enjoy a visit to Hulihe'e Palace , the erstwhile vacation residence of King Kalākaua and Queen Kapi‘olani.

Look out for the towering steeple of the active Moku`aikaua Church; Kailua's tallest structure which also boasts walls made of lava rock. Glimpses into early Japanese immigrant life await at the Kona Coffee Living History Farm. Here costumed staff recount exciting tales of the past. Dedicated to Hawaii's first astronaut, the Astronaut Ellison S. Onizuka Space Center merits a visit for its space-related memorabilia and space travel simulator.
