International Market Place

A local fixture that's changed amazingly little since its inception in 1955, International Market Place features more than 130 shops, kiosks, and artist's stands selling everything from fine jewelry to t-shirts, from quilts to candles. While the collection of shops unapologetically caters to tourists, you'll still see authentic Hawaiian-made crafts, as well as great bargains. Market Place is organized around a banyan tree that's more than a century old and is just one of the property's trees of importance. Much-loved Queen Emma, the islands' 19th-century monarch, once owned the land on which Market Place now sits. Bring a reusable shopping bag to enhance island sustainability.
