Hilo - Kalakaua Park

This small park lies in the middle of Hilo's Old Town between Waianuenue Avenue and Kalakaua Street, Kinoole and Keawe Street.

Several of the trees in the park are said to have been planted during the reign of the Hawaiian King David Kalakaua who was a frequent visitor to Hilo and after whom the park is named. A bronze statue of King Kalakaua stands in the middle of the park.
