Lonely Planet review for La'ie Hawaii Temple
In 1919 the Mormons constructed La'ie Hawaii Temple, a mini-version of the great Salt Lake temple, at the end of a wide promenade. It is formal and stately, like nothing else on this end of the Windward Coast. There is a visitor center where enthusiastic guides will show you pictures of the interior of the temple (off-limits to non-Mormons) and talk to you extensively about the wonders of their faith.
Nearby is the Hawaii branch of Brigham Young University, with scholarship programs attracting students from islands throughout the Pacific.
