Quick Trip from Waikiki to Palace
Just a few minutes by bus from Waikiki, the State Capitol, Iolani Palace, State Art Museum, Library, City Hall, Mission Houses Museum, and other landmarks are situated in and around a beautiful city square close to the central business district with many restaurants and shops.

Routes 2 & 13 travel west the same route from Kuhio Ave to Kalakaua Ave, exit Waikiki by the Hawaii Convention Center, and west on one-way Beretania St to the Hawaii State Capitol. Just after passing the State Capitol, Buses 2 & 13 turn left on Richards St then right on Hotel St. Hotel St is a two-way bus-only artery through downtown Honolulu. For trips to the Capitol and downtown Honolulu, there's a Bus 2 or 13 about every 5-10 minutes from 5 a.m. to 6 p.m. and every 15-20 minutes from 6 p.m. to midnight. ...
