The capital city of Honolulu (sheltered bay) is just six miles away from the sun and surf of Waikiki, and is considered the hub of business and politics in the islands.  Modern office buildings stand tall alongside Honolulu's historic downtown districts. This is where you go to cut a business deal, celebrate a special occasion over a gourmet meal, visit one or more cultural institutions, and immerse yourself in Honolulu's rich history.
