Honolulu, Hawaii

        Honolulu, Hawaii, one of the most widely known destination capitols of the world has more to offer than just its beaches. The island of Oahu makes up 73% of the state's population and is also part of the largest mountain ranges in the world (mostly under water). When visiting Honolulu for the first time, it is said that you are overwhelmed the minute you arrive. The breath taking views, floral scenery, fresh crisp air, and vibrant water colors are just a few things visitors enjoy.

        The blended cultures of Honolulu make the museums, food, and festivals very unique. A large part of Hawaiian culture is the meals. Plate lunches include two scoops of rice, macaroni salad and kalua pork, Korean barbecue, chicken katsu, or beef teriyaki. The plate lunch offers a variety of food while representing the many cultures that make up Hawaii. The 20th Annual Honolulu Festival for 2014 included performers from the Pacific Rim, Japan, Australia, and the U.S. midland. Both modern and traditional dance, music, and arts and crafts play a large part in the festival each year.

        Apart from relaxing on the beautiful beaches, Honolulu has many different experiences to indulge in. Visiting a submarine at Pearl Harbor, learning to surf, exploring the world's largest maze, petting dolphins, and exploring the Waikiki Aquarium and Honolulu Zoo are some of its main attractions. Here is a link that explains the experiences Honolulu offers. Experience Honolulu is a great place to find relaxation as well as once in a life time experiences.
