Nani Mau Gardens and Event Space
Hilo, Hawaii, United States
Nani Mau Gardens and Event Space in Hilo, Hawaii, opened to the public in 1972 after being transformed from a 22-acre papaya patch.
The gardens, whose name means "forever beautiful," were established by Makato Nitahara and later purchased by Helen Koo in 2012, who envisioned the space as one of peace and harmony. Covering about 20 acres, the gardens boast lush tropical plants, vibrant flowers, rare palms, and fruit orchards suited to Hilo's humid climate.
The site features paved walking paths and is designed to be a serene setting for visitors to enjoy nature and Hawaiian culture. It has become a beloved destination for tourists and locals alike, offering beautiful scenery for family celebrations, community events, and weddings, supported by an on-site restaurant and event facilities.
