Pu'u O Kaimukī Park — Attraction in Honolulu

DATE NIGHT APPROVED LOCATION!

Most locals know this park by "Christmas Tree Park" The reason being is because there is a man-made pole there from the remnants​ of a once radio tower that is lined​ with Christmas​ lights that are​ configured in the shape of a Christmas​ tree. As winter comes and the holidays is approaching after thanksgiving usually the lights are turned on at night in green and can be seen from different areas in Honolulu​. Its quite beautiful.

FAST FACTS: Please be mindful of the residents that live near this park, especially when going in the evening. The park does​ have hours, and there have​ been ​incidences of police coming in at night because of noise complaints but other than that if you come here and practice respect, by not being too noisy, obnoxious​ then you'll​ definitely​ avoid having to be put​ in that situation.

PARKING: Its residential​ street, so you can only park along the side streets in front of homes.

DAY: This park is really peaceful with breathtaking​ panoramic views of the city, Manoa, Waialae, Kahala and also Hawaii Kai. I recommend coming here as later in the day around 1-2hrs before sunset. Its much ​cooler and if your a dog owner its a perfect time as other dog owners also come around this time and play around here. There are trash bins so no problem not having a place to dispose of​ garbage. There are lots of room here to place a mat on the comfortable grass. Perfect for picnics, and just lounging while waiting for the sunset.

NIGHT: In the evening you'll be surrounded by​ the lights of Honolulu​​. When it is not winter time this park is pitch dark​ and is only lit by the surrounding city and neighborhood lights. As breathtaking as it is during the daytime​, the night view is another treat on its own. Its another story when its a full moon​, a view worth seeing.

Overall this park is one of a few date night spots I​ recommend on going to after dinner or dessert (Via Gelato down the road). It's​ a great place to talk, reflect, relax, and just to find a peaceful place to just unwind​ while looking at the ​quiet and peaceful ambiance of the city in...

I do not recommend this place for first visitors and tourist. So many people are coming since 1980’. SNS say that very beautiful secret spot, but in fact, many trouble happens.

《Reason 1: ☝️: that park mixed up Honolulu city&county property and private property. It’s hard to understand exactly No trespassing zone. (See below the reviews)

《Reason 2: ✌️private property owner is calling Police. (See below the reviews)

《Reason 3:🤟 police get arrested people for Trespassing second degree and go to court.

Police! Honolulu city, think about it. If you wanna keep safe the this Christmas...

Incredible park in the middle of Kaimuki. As another reviewer mentioned, it's known as "Christmas Tree Park" and often is sparsely populated (you won't find others here regularly. Sunset is the BEST time to visit as you see not only a beautiful vignette of the highrises in Waikiki, but Diamond Head and the valleys of Manoa and Palolo are directly in front. A MUST visit if ever...
