Frommer's Review
This 2 1/2-ton stone was used as a test of royal strength: Ancient legend said that whoever could move the stone would conquer and unite the islands. As a 14-year-old boy, King Kamehameha the Great moved the stone -- and later fulfilled his destiny. The Pinao stone, next to it, once guarded an ancient temple.
