Tropical Forest Hawai‘i - Phipps Conservatory and Botanical Garden

Say aloha to the spectacular intertwining of nature and culture of Hawai‘i, one of the most ecologically diverse places on Earth. Tropical Forest Hawai‘i: Aloha ʻĀina invites guests to take an exciting, immersive journey through the rich history, nature and culture of the Hawaiian archipelago. Lush greenery, fragrant flora and engaging new interpretation stations bring to life the Indigenous Hawaiian culture of “Aloha ʻĀina” (“love of land”), demonstrating historic and modern methods of living in harmony with the natural world. From the exhibit’s dramatic entrance, where a model canoe represents the first Polynesian voyages to Hawai‘i, guests will be transported to a world of new discoveries.
