The Best City in the US for Shopping Is Exactly the One You Think It Is | Condé Nast Traveler

"Located in Ward Village, this part bookstore, part gallery, part boutique quietly operates as one of the most useful places on Oʻahu for sorting true culture from costume, offering objects like feather lei that take months to make, kapa cloth beaten from bark, and contemporary aloha shirts that reference native plants and moʻolelo instead of cartoon palms, while programming such as language sessions, lauhala weaving, and hula workshops turns shopping into a form of cultural orientation for visitors who want to learn rather than just collect." - Paul Jebara
