Shangri La Museum, Islamic art museum in Black Point, Honolulu, United States.
The five-acre oceanfront estate contains over 4,500 objects from Islamic cultures, including architectural elements, textiles, and decorative pieces from Morocco to India.
American philanthropist Doris Duke constructed this residence between 1936 and 1938 after her honeymoon visit to Hawaii, transforming it into her collection space.
The museum presents changing exhibitions featuring visual and performing artists who interpret concepts of place through Islamic art and Hawaiian perspectives.
Tours start at the Honolulu Museum of Art four times daily from Thursday through Saturday, requiring advance reservations for access to the property.
The property houses North America's only completed Molded Lusterware Mihrab, a prayer niche that exemplifies traditional Islamic architectural craftsmanship.
