Hānaiakamalama or Queen Emma Summer Palace, served as a retreat for Queen Emma of Hawaii from 1857 to 1885, as well as for her husband King Kamehameha IV, and their son, Prince Albert Edward. It is a now a historic landmark, museum, and tourist site located at 2913 Pali Highway, less than a ten-minute drive outside of downtown Honolulu, Hawaii. The museum is open daily from 9:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m., and is maintained with entrance fees, revenue from the gift shop, and other funds raised by the Daughters of Hawaii.

History

Hānaiakamalama is located in the NuШаблон:Okinauanu Valley, long a popular location first for Hawaiian chiefs and royalty, and later for non-Hawaiian residents, who found the cooler climate of the uplands more comfortable than downtown Honolulu. The Hawaiian name means either the Southern Cross or is the name of a benevolent goddess.[1]

The frame of the home was built in Boston, in 1848, and shipped to [[Hawaii|HawaiШаблон:Okinai]] via Cape Horn. It was then assembled on a property purchased by John Lewis from the [[Kingdom of Hawaii|Kingdom of HawaiШаблон:Okinai]] . It had six rooms, one story, and a porch with Doric columns in the Greek Revival style.

In 1850, two years after it was completed, the home was purchased at auction by Keoni Ana (John Young II) for $6,000. Young owned the estate until 1857, when he gave it to his niece, Queen Emma. In 1869, Queen Emma added a large room called the Edinburgh Room to the rear of the structure, in preparation for the visit of the Duke of Edinburgh.[2]

After Queen Emma's death in 1885, the Kingdom of HawaiШаблон:Okinai bought the estate. In 1911, Territorial Governor Walter F. Frear declared it a park to be maintained by the City and County of Honolulu.[2] At one point, plans were made to build a baseball park over the site. However, the Daughters of Hawaii were able to acquire the building and have since restored and maintained it as a museum.[3] The site was placed on the National Register of Historic Places in the 1970s.[2]
