Take Time to Visit the Palace and Basement! 🏰📱
We booked timed entry tickets online 🎟️💻. The tickets included shoe covers to wear over our footwear and a handheld audio tour device that we could use in each room to learn about the palace’s structure, artifacts, and residents 🗣️🏛️. There was no time limit on the visit, so we could stay longer in the areas that interested us the most ⏳❤️. I took lots of photos with no other people in them – it felt like we had the palace to ourselves! 📸✨ The kind docent even offered to take our photo by the grand staircase – just ask and they’re happy to help! 🙏🪜 A few important notes: Do not place bags or belongings on the floor 🎒❌ Do not touch any artifacts 🖐️🚫 You’ll learn so much about Hawaiian kings and queens 👑📖. While much of the palace interior consists of beautifully restored replicas, the experience is still deeply moving and educational 💫🌺. It was absolutely worth our visit – a perfect blend of history, culture, and beauty! #IolaniPalace #TimedEntry #AudioTour #ShoeCovers #HawaiianHistory #RespectTheArtifacts
