Enjoyed strolling the grounds of Museum, being transported back to a more peaceful way of being and time. Will definitely return to learn more with a tour. The gift shop is beautifully arranged with books and by local artists.. Simply Amazing, and i tell you what .. 'The North Shore Goodies' Original Chocolate Coconut Peanut Butter is absolutely delectable. Highly recommend grabbing a couple jars to take home. Will have to get the Banana MacNut Peanut Butter, next time!

Since I visited Sunday it was closed but I was still able to access the yard from the back gate and walk around. It has 3 outstanding interpretive signs. Well worth the visit to understand this important aspect and impact on traditional Hawaiian culture. Historic buildings amazingly restored. Oldest wooden building in HI, shipped from Boston pre-cut lumber in 1821.

In addition to the museum, locals and visitors should consider going to the Oahu Cemetery Pupu Theater which is organized by the amazing staff at the Mission Houses where there will be historical reenactments of legendary figures in Hawaii every summer. It is definitely an interesting experience you can consider!

Well maintained, charming site with interesting cultural activities from time to time. It’s a bunch of historic houses. Regardless of one’s opinion of them having been there in the first place, they are a part of our islands’ history, and deserve respect

Cool place with lots of history about the missionaries and their life in Hawaii. They have a printing press which was great for the kids and adults to see in action. The old missionary house is the original house from the 1800s.
