With more than 10 years of experience as a professional writer, Megan holds a degree in Mass Media from her home state of Minnesota. After college, she chose to trade in her winter boots for slippahs and moved to the beautiful island of Oahu, where she has been living for more than five years. She lives on the west side but is constantly taking mini-road trips across the island and visits the neighboring islands whenever she can getaway. She loves hiking, snorkeling, locally-grown coffee, and finding the best acai bowl on Oahu.
From popular tourist trails to strenuous backpacking treks, the Hawaiian Islands are home to countless incredible hikes. But sometimes, you’re not in the mood for a hike and would prefer a leisurely stroll through a peaceful park instead. Located in the heart of Hilo – Hawaii’s oldest city – near Coconut Island on the breathtaking Banyan Drive, is Liliuokalani Park and Gardens, a positively enchanting slice of waterfront paradise. The meandering path that winds its way through this charming park will easily transport you to Japan and is perfect for a relaxing stroll.
Check out the Friends of Lili’uokalani Gardens Facebook page for information on their upcoming events to celebrate the garden’s centennial through 2019 (the garden was under construction in 1917 and 1918, and opened to the public in 1919), as well as more charming photographs of the park sure to leave you in a relaxed state of mind – even if you are at work right now.
