It’s one of the rare places in the world that Kuo Min Tang’s flags are flying in the sky day and night! This Chinatown Cultural Plaza, funded and built by Taiwanese, is the centre for the local Chinese communities to hold events. Inside, there is a Guanyin Buddha with free scents offered for people
I was surprised of how traditional Chinese cultures were preserved here. Several Chinese style restaurants, travel agency, acupuncture and few others shops are located inside the complex.

After nearly three years of covid isolation, it was wonderful to celebrate Chinese New Year walking around food booths, merchandise, and lions dance and performances.
My first place I had hoped to visit as soon as I arrived in Waikiki, from the familiar culture, building aesthetics, to the delicious food it was everything I heard about and more. Definitely a sight to behold if you're ever nearby.

Shops were closed up when we were there, but the statue was beautiful and Jolenes market has amazing food.
