On Saturday, September 24th, I visited the Byodo-in Temple with my sister Holly. We paid $3 each to enter the memorial park. The structure is a non-denominational Buddhist temple and is located near the Ko’olau Mountains. It’s amazing that it was built without nails. You can read all about its history at their site.
Here are a few photos:

It was a peaceful stop on our way to the North Shore. Thanks to my friend Shayna for suggesting it.
