A stunning replica of a 950-year-old Japanese temple nestled at the base of the Koolau Mountains. Kids love feeding the hundreds of koi fish in the pond and ringing the large brass peace bell. The temple and grounds are serene and beautiful with the dramatic green cliffs rising directly behind. Wild peacocks roam the grounds adding color and excitement. The whole visit takes about an hour and pairs perfectly with a stop at the nearby botanical garden. It is one of the most photogenic spots on the island.
