It is located at 75–5718 AliШаблон:Okinai Drive, Kailua-Kona.

History

The palace was originally built out of lava rock by John Adams Kuakini (governor of the [[Hawaii (island)|island of HawaiШаблон:Okinai]]) during the Hawaiian Kingdom. When he died in 1844 he left it to his hānai (adopted) son William Pitt Leleiohoku I, the son of Prime Minister William Pitt Kalanimoku.[2] Leleiohoku died in the measles epidemic of 1848 and left it to his son John William Pitt Kīnaʻu, but he died young and the palace went to his mother Princess Ruth Keʻelikōlani. Ruth made HuliheШаблон:Okinae her chief residence for most of her life, but she preferred to sleep in a grass hut on the palace grounds rather than in the palace. She invited all of the reigning monarchs to vacation at HuliheШаблон:Okinae, from Kamehameha III to Liliʻuokalani. Ruth died and left the palace to her cousin and sole heir Princess Bernice Pauahi Bishop.

It was later sold to King Kalākaua and [[Queen Kapiolani|Queen KapiШаблон:Okinaolani]]. Kalākaua renamed the palace Hikulani Hale, which means “House of the Seventh ruler,” referring to himself, the seventh monarch of the monarchy that began with King Kamehameha I. In 1885, King Kalākaua had the palace plastered over the outside to give the building a more refined appearance. After Kalākaua's death it passed to KapiШаблон:Okinaolani who left HuliheШаблон:Okinae Palace to her two nephews, Prince Jonah Kūhiō Kalanianaʻole Piʻikoi and Prince David Kawānanakoa.[3] In 1927 the [[Daughters of Hawaii|Daughters of HawaiШаблон:Okinai]], a group dedicated to preserving the cultural legacy of the Hawaiian Islands, restored HuliheШаблон:Okinae Palace and turned it into a museum. It was added to the National Register of Historic Places listings on the island of Hawaii in 1973 as site 73000653.[2]

The palace's walls and ceiling had slight cracks following the 2006 Kiholo Bay earthquake that was centered on the Kohala coast.
