Pu'u o Mahuka Heiau State Monument
Attributed to the legendary menehune , Pu'u o Mahuka Heiau State Monument is a long, low-walled platform temple perched on a bluff above Waimea; and it's the largest heiau on O'ahu. The terraced stone walls are a couple of feet high, although most of the heiau is now overgrown. It's an excellent site for a temple, with a commanding view of both Waimea Valley and Waimea Bay. West, the view extends along the coast to Ka'ena Point.
