Historic Kilohana Estate
Past Lihue headed toward Puhi and the Kauai Community College campus is Kilohana, a restored plantation estate that provides a glimpse of life in the 1930s. Manicured green lawns surround the estate, which now is home to Gaylord's Restaurant and a number of shops. Once the center of a 27,000-acre sugar plantation and the hub of Kauai business, cultural and social life, the 35-acre estate is now planted in tropical gardens and features an old plantation village. Carriage rides drawn by Clydesdale horses provide tours of the grounds and Hawaiian luaus are staged on a regular basis.
