The Hawaii State Capitol is the official statehouse or capitol building of the U.S. state of Hawaii. From its chambers, the legislative branch performs its duties in governing the state.

Take a Self Guided Tour

The Office of the Governor produces a self-guided tour brochure available in Room 415 (Governor’s Office of Constituent Services). Visit https://governor.hawaii.gov/contact-us/hawai%CA%BBi-state-capitol-tours/ for more information on a virtual tour and other related resources.
While guided tours are no longer offered at the Capitol, you may contact your legislators to see if their offices can be of assistance if you have a group.

The self-guided tour brochure provides information including the symbolism behind the architecture and design of the capitol building, the history, and features of the grounds. The Public Access Room also has copies available outside our room on the 4th floor of the Capitol, room 401.
