It's a neat old building with some interesting information about the Chinese community in Hawaii. There is a little theatre which shows old films of Hawaii taken by Thomas Edison-they were very cool.

It’s a small museum but it’s very informative about the history of Chinese immigration to Maui. There is a good display about Dr. Sun Yat-sen’s time in Hawaii. Black and white film clips of Hawaii shot by Thomas Edison played on a big screen TV in the “Cookhouse” was quite interesting. Admission to the museum was $7 which is also... More

Lahaina itself is filled with cultural significance amidst the tourist traps that have been taking over this once quaint whaling town. Asian history comes alive in this temple(Not the restaurants that line up the streets) and are probably just an eyesore to mainlanders who overlook this amazing locale because if they wanted they can see "Chinatown" in their neck of...
