DOWNTOWN.   Boasting extensive holdings of Western and Asian art, this comprehensive museum is one of America's best. It also echoes Hawaii's multiculturalism, thanks to its collection of items from the Pacific, Africa, America, and Europe. Japanese woodblock prints and Italian Renaissance paintings are prominent, but you'll also find historical and contemporary works in a variety of media. Permanent and temporary exhibits expand the offerings, and the complex also features a theater, cafe, and studio art classes.   (© 10Best)
