Honolulu

Although it is commonly perceived as a concrete jungle of highrise hotels, resorts and tacky tourist attractions, Honolulu is also a fascinating combination of ethnic neighbourhoods and cultural contrasts.

Apart from the Waikiki tourist district, Honolulu is a vibrant city with a downtown core containing numerous historic buildings, a bustling Chinatown and the moving war memorial at Pearl Harbor.
