Hawaii State Capitol, Capitol building in downtown Honolulu, United States.
The Hawaii State Capitol features open-air architecture with reflecting pools surrounding the main structure and columns that represent palm trees.
The construction of this governmental building, completed in March 1969, replaced Iolani Palace as the center of Hawaii state legislature.
Eight columns encircling the structure symbolize the main Hawaiian islands, while the legislative chambers take the form of volcanic cones.
Visitors can take self-guided tours of the building from Monday through Friday between 7:00 AM and 5:00 PM, with parking available in the basement.
The building incorporates natural elements through its design, allowing sunlight and rain to enter through the central courtyard's opening to the sky.
