Downtown Hilo
Downtown Hilo is a good place to begin your tour of Hilo. It lies largely between the Wailuku River - which runs along the west side of the city - and the Waiakea Peninsula at the northeastern end. Most of the city’s historic, landmark buildings are located on Waianuenue Avenue and Kalakaua Street, which also border the large, grassy Kalakaua Park. In the city center, too, on Haili Street, are the Lyman Museum and New England-style Mission House, the latter built in 1839. The museum is rich in Hawaiian artifacts and Chinese and Hawaiian art and pottery, some of it dating from 2 BC.
