Polynesian Cultural Center on Oahu, Hawaii
The first settlers in Hawaii were Polynesians. The Polynesian Cultural Center on Oahu is dedicated to maintaining the cultures of the distinct groups who settled the islands. Shown here is a Fijian Temple, but the original settlers also came from Tonga, New Zealand, Samoa Islands, and Tahiti.
