A number of Oahu condos for sale are located in the Kalihi and Kapalama areas of Oahu.  A major landmark in the popular residential district of Honolulu is the Bernice Pauahi Bishop Museum, designated as the Hawaii State Museum of Natural and Cultural History.  Founded in 1889, Bishop Museum is the largest museum in the state and is home to the world’s largest collection of Polynesian and Pacific art, artifacts, and scientific pieces.  In addition to a large gallery dedicated to Hawaiiana studies, the Bishop Museum also features a large entomological collection that includes more than thirteen million specimens.  This is the third largest collection of its kind in the nation. The museum is actually located on the original campus of the Kamehameha Schools and features a number of delicate architectural styles.  Hawaiian Hall and Polynesian Hall comprise an interesting Victorian style.  The Hawaiian Hall is home to a complete Sperm whale skeleton.

The Bishop Museum is also the home of many valuable artifacts like the Hawaiian Royal Regalia, the royal crowns, and the consorts crown. Many of the native ancestry-related pieces have been centered in controversy since thieves broke into the museum and stole certain things in an effort to return them to burial grounds and other sacred sites.
