Hawaii was a kingdom. Right. So, I took a historic trip to
Iolani Palace where the monarchy was living.
It's a tiny "palace," compared with European palaces like the Palace of Versailles that is ridiculously gigantic. But the facility was pretty cutting edge back then with flush toilets and electricity. Furniture, china, glass windows, etc. are beautiful. Sadly, most parts of furniture was lost after the monarchy was overturned. Highly likely European billionaires bought in auctions for their private collections, mm, billionaires.
My question is ... why this palace is decorated with cheesy lanterns?!
