Read MoreLiliʻuokalani Gardens in Hilo is the largest Japanese garden outside Japan. Named after Hawaiʻi's last reigning monarch, Queen Liliʻuokalani. Located on Hilo's Banyan Drive, this authentic, 25 acre Japanese garden was dedicated in 1917 as a tribute to Hawaiʻi's first Japanese immigrants who worked in the island of Hawaiʻi's sugar cane fields.
This beautifully landscaped park features arching bridges over fishponds, rock gardens, pagodas, Japanese stone lanterns and a teahouse. Views of Hilo Bay and Mokuola (Coconut Island) enhance this peaceful setting. With so much to see, this is a popular park for families to explore while they’re visiting the Hilo area.
There are lots of angle parking spots, an ice cream shop (Alii Ice ), a tea house (Shoroan Tea House) and a restaurant (Hilo Bay Cafe) nearby.
The garden opens 24 hours, and is free.
