Ala Wai Canal

The canal is not very long, there are many small towns on both sides, the river here is very wide, did not see the transport boat passing by this, there are many interesting small things on the river, tourists who come here also like to enjoy the scenery.

The Alaway Canal is much wider than our Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal, and the Haihe River is very clean, but the canal is not long. Very short one. The canal is not a scenery to see, but the surrounding is more lively, and there are many places to eat.

The Alawi Canal is very forced from Waikiki. Although it is a canal, it is still a relatively wide river. The scenery on both sides of the canal is good. There are modern buildings and beautiful natural landscapes.

Ala Wai Canal, the Allawi Canal, or the Allawi Canal, an artificial canal in Honolulu. The canal is the northeast border of the Waikiki region. Usually visitors mention Honolulu and think of the famous Waikiki, the Waikiki region between the Alawi Canal and the Pacific Ocean, south and southwest of the canal, while Waikiki's west and southwest are adjacent to the Pacific Ocean. The Alawi Canal, which runs through Waikiki District, opens at Lake Kahanamoku (Kahanamoku Lagoon) and Port Alawi (Ala Wai Harbor), first east, after crossing the Alawi Avenue (the Avenue Bridge crosses the canal), then starts to turn southeast, all the way to the Waikiki-Kapahulu Public Library (Waikiki-Kapahulu Public Library), from the map, End there. Of course, more precisely, the reverse is the starting point of the tributary and the end point of the port of Alawi. The canal is in the section of the port of Alawi "open" east, which is the broad Alamora region to the north and the broad Waikiki region to the south. The canal was built in 1921 and completed in 1928. It has been dredged three times since then, in 67, 1978 and 2002; The purpose of the canal was to drain, when Waikiki area was covered with marshlands and rice fields, and later became a flood dischargeway in the central and eastern parts of Honolulu city. There are three roads across the canal: McCullough Street (McCully Street), Kalkaua Avenue ( Ala Moana Boulevard), Alamona Avenue ( Ala Moana Boulevard). Between the three bridges, the riverside road that stretches along the canal is called the Alawi Corridor or the Alawi Trail (Ala Wai Promenade). The promenade or the trail is a good place for an empty and quiet walk. Sometimes people fish by the bridge, some jogging... In my opinion, the situation is more interesting than the beach.

Located on the left side of Waikikiki Beach, the Arawi Canal is a man-made river, more than 100 meters wide and about three kilometers long. It runs northwest along the northern boundary of the tourist area and into the Pacific Ocean. The river is spacious and clear. On both sides of the canal, there are many hotels and shopping malls. There are several bridges across the canal. It's quiet and a good place for a leisure walk.

You can see it from the window of our room in Waikikiki Island colony. Go out and turn right to the canal. The Ala Wai Canal Canal is the northern boundary of the Waikikiis tourist area, traveling southwest to the Pacific Ocean. The river is spacious and clear. High-rise buildings and fancy small houses stand on both sides of the canal. There are several bridges across the canal. Walking along the canal, breathing fresh air, or doing morning exercises is also good.
