Hawaii State Capitol

The Hawaii State Capitol is very local. This American government parliament looks very solemn and not a very tall building. After all, this state is far from home. There is no entrance to the parliament. It is a troublesome way to make an appointment. It is not very convenient.

The Parliament Building is a relatively large-scale building in Hawaii, but it can only visit the external structure, and the inside cannot be visited, but the surrounding area is very lively, there are many places to visit

Under a great guide - Ursula led, we visited the botanical garden. The trip was rich and interesting. Ursula told us about the background of the botanical garden and the local ecosystem, explaining how and why this decision was so important. We highly recommend booking this tour through the Botanical Garden.

The building of Hawaii's State Council was magnificent, with the State Emblem hanging in the middle of the main entrance, which had the words 1959 on it. That year Hawaii became a state of the United States of America. The building has a strong tropical style, a corridor courtyard, a spacious patio, you can see the blue sky and white clouds. The building is surrounded by tall palm trees. According to the information, the eight huge pillars supporting the building symbolize the eight major islands of Hawaii, surrounded by pools, and symbolize the vast Pacific Ocean of Hawaii. There is a statue of FATHER DAMIEN in front of the building. We guess it must be a person of great importance to the state of Hawaii. Later, it was found on the Internet that this statue of Damien, a respected Belgian priest, was forced to exile to Molokai Island, Hawaii, in 1866. He devoted his life to the care of leprosy patients and was regarded as the most loyal friend by the Hawaiian people. On the other side of the building, the statue of Queen LILILIUOKLAUI, the last monarch of Hawaii, faces the State Capitol Building with GIVEN WITH ALOHA BY THE PEOPLE OF HAWAII written below. It means the people of Hawaii greet you. ALOHA Aloha is the most common greeting in Hawaii, and we learned it when we traveled in Honolulu. A simple word, including hello, thank you, welcome, goodbye, I love you and so on, can be used in any occasion. On both sides of the first floor is the conference hall. One is SENATE and the other is HOUSE OF REPRESENTITIVES. The latter is open, with the American flag and the Hawaiian flag in the middle. There are rows of semicircular seats with computers on each table. Staff members introduced that upper-level seats were open to the public. We see seats for wheelchair residents. When we went, the meeting on that day came to an end. The staff said that there would be a meeting at 12 o'clock tomorrow. Welcome to the audience. Upstairs is the office, each room has a sign at the door, indicating the name of the members and the area they represent. At that time, I saw a woman holding a sign and shouting loudly, as if asking the MP to respond to a case.

This parliament building is very tasty. It's not a traditional Gothic European building surrounded by water. It feels very spiritual. I like the buildings here so much that they can get in and out freely.
