Fodor's Expert Review Huialoha Church

Originally constructed by Christian missionaries and their Hawaiian followers in 1859, the church has weathered earthquakes and storms, though it has needed major repair projects approximately every 30 years, beginning in the 1940s. The commitment to care for and restore the church, from both Kaupo residents and other visitors who fall in love with it, is just as beautiful as the two-foot-thick white rock walls that hold it up. The church is still used on occasions such as holidays, with one Sunday service per month, and the occasional wedding. Visitors often stop here for a picnic with gorgeous views, as the church sits oceanside.
