Polynesian Cultural Center Lights Up Oahu's Windward Side
A church sponsored Polynesian Cultural Center on Oahu showcases six villages from Tahiti Fiji Tonga Samoa New Zealand and Hawaii. Natives helped build the sites without nails using coconut fiber ties and corded lashings while sprinkler systems meet fire codes. Maori carvings and a Tonga palace replica attract visitors and support a scholars ship fund for local church college.
