Set on the northeastern side of Hawaii, Hilo has a breathtaking natural beauty. It is rich with spectacular gardens, lush rainforests, and dramatic waterfalls. Liliuokalani Park and Gardens is one of the leading attractions here, a 9.8-hectare (24.1-acre) park with Japanese-style fish ponds, pagodas, and rock gardens. At Wailuku River State Park, you will find two famous waterfalls - Pe’epe’e Falls and Rainbow Falls. This census-designated place is also a great stopover point for those heading to Hawaii, especially with the presence of Hilo International Airport that serves as a gateway for international tourists.
