2. Ka Ulu a Paoa Heiau

NORTH SHORE.   In Hawaii's storied past, before language was codified, the most promising, gifted hula dancers gathered at this venerated place at the edge of the sea to refine their art and showcase their skills. The temple's stoneworks were their training ground, where they perfected the means of oral and visual storytelling. The place is still believed to be sacred, and visitors are asked to respect the site. Location and views are singularly beautiful.   (© 10Best)
