Description:
WAILUKU. Hundreds of years ago, this garden was the site of a battle so vicious that the stream was blocked by the bodies of the slain. Nowadays, only the name, which means "damming of the waters," recalls the event. In a gesture of reconciliation, the Heritage Gardens' purpose is to honor all the cultures that contributed to Hawaii's prosperity. Structures representing China, Japan, Portugal, and the United States stand alongside each other, sharing the honor. Picnic facilities and grills make this a great stopover for lunch or for outdoor celebrations. |
