The Lahaina Banyan Court Park is a public park located at the corner of Front Street and Canal Street in the town of Lahaina, Hawaii, which was the capital of the Kingdom of Hawaii from 1820 to 1845. The 1.94 acres (0.79 ha) park, also known as Lahaina Courthouse Square and commonly called Banyan Tree Park, contains multiple heritage sites on the Lahaina Historic Trail, and a self-guided walking tour through the Lahaina Historic Districts.[1]
The park occupies the site of the Old Lahaina Fort, originally built in 1831. Hoapili, the Royal Governor of Maui, built the fort to protect the town from riotous sailors when Lahaina was used as an anchorage for the North Pacific whaling fleet.[2] After the fort was demolished in 1854, a courthouse was built on the site. A portion of the old Lahaina Fort was reconstructed in 1964. The old Lahaina Courthouse was recognized as a contributing property of the Lahaina Historic District in 1965, and is currently used by the Lahaina Arts Council and the Lahaina Historic Society.
Sheriff William Owen Smith planted an Indian banyan tree in the courtyard square in 1873 to memorialize the 50th anniversary of the first American Protestant mission in Lahaina. The banyan tree has become the largest banyan tree in Hawaii, and one of the largest banyan trees in the United States. Its extensive trunk and aerial root system now covers 0.66 acres (0.27 ha). The park is managed by the County of Maui and the Lahaina Restoration Foundation.

1 - Lahaina Historic Trail
What: Self-guided tour of 62 historic Lahaina sites
Where: Spread throughout 55 acres of Lahaina
When: The best time to visit is Monday-Friday, 10 a.m.-3 p.m. This historic trail takes about an hour
Lahaina is a town of major historical significance. Once the first capital of the Kingdom of Hawaii, a busy whaling port and a plantation settlement, you can follow the Lahaina Historic Trail (Ala Moolelo O Lahaina) to walk in the footsteps of Lahaina’s past.
This self-guided tour takes you to significant sites throughout 55 acres of Lahaina, many of which have been designated National Historic Landmarks. Members of the Lahaina Restoration Foundation have worked for three decades to create the trail and preserve many of the buildings along it. They’ve also labeled dozens of historic sites with informative bronze plaques, each providing explanations about an important point of interest from Lahaina's past. Look for them around and about Front Street.
You’ll see a fascinating blend of influences covering Hawaiian history, the whaling era, the missionaries and immigrant plantation life. The Baldwin Home was the two-story house of Protestant missionaries in the mid-1830s. Hale Paahao, the “stuck-in-irons house,” was a jail for rowdy sailors in the 1850s. Structures like the Wo Hing Temple and the Lahaina Jodo Mission highlight the influences of Chinese and Japanese immigrants in Maui.
To get a historical walking guide highlighting all 62 historic sites, visit the Lahaina Visitor Center in the Old Lahaina Courthouse located between the Banyan Tree and Lahaina Harbor.

3 - The Banyan Tree
What: One of the country's largest banyan trees
Where: In front of the Lahaina Courthouse, adjacent to Lahaina Harbor
Cool down in the shade under one of the largest banyan trees in the United States. Imported from India and planted in front of the Lahaina Courthouse and Lahaina Harbor on 1873, this sprawling tree along Front Street is the size of an entire city block and stands more than 60-feet high. If you need to cool down a bit, you can walk for two-thirds of an acre under the shadow of its sweeping branches. Many events and art exhibits are held beneath this popular gathering place. At Art in the Park, which takes place every second and fourth weekend of the month, browse for affordable paintings, limited edition prints and a wealth of crafts under the dangling vines and twelve major trunks of this Lahaina landmark.

Lahaina Banyan Court Park est un parc public situé entre la rue Front Street et le port de Lahaina.
Autrefois le site de l'ancien fort de Lahaina, il abrite entre autres aujourd'hui l'ancien palais de justice, une partie de l'ancien fort ainsi qu'un gigantesque arbre, un banian.
Cet arbre est l'un des plus grands banians des États-Unis et il est l'une des principales attractions de Lahaina.
Il a été planté en avril 1873 pour commémorer le 50e anniversaire des missionnaires protestants à Lahaina. Lorsqu'il a été planté, il avait une hauteur de 2,4 mètres. Aujourd'hui, il mesure plus de 18 mètres de haut.
Cet arbre a développé une multitude de troncs et de racines, formant à lui seul un parc verdoyant dans lequel il est vraiment agréable de se promener pour admirer ses immenses tentacules ou tout simplement se reposer sous son imposant feuillage.
Quant à l'ancien palais de justice, il abrite aujourd'hui un musée, des galeries d'art, un centre d'accueil ainsi qu'une salle de réunion communautaire.

The banyan tree Maui Hawaii, USA was planted on April 24, 1873, in the old town of Lahaina. This took place in order to mark the 50th anniversary of the arrival of first American Protestant mission.
The Maui banyan tree park is commonly known in Hawaiian as paniana. You can find the tree park located in the Courthouse Square, which was renamed Lahaina Banyan Tree Court Park. The park itself is approximately 1.94 acres. It is the Hawaii's biggest as well as the largest in all of the United States.
The Lahaina banyan tree was a gift from missionaries from India. Believe it or not, the tree was only 8 feet (2.4 m) when originally planted.
Today it stands at about 60 feet (18 m) and has rooted into 16 major trunks (not including the main trunk) with a giant canopy that covers an area of about 0.66 acres (0.27 ha).
Wow.
The banyan tree court park is located close to the port in the town of Lahaina. This town used to be the capital of Hawaii.
Complete travel guide to Maui:
The Lahaina banyan tree is the oldest banyan tree in Hawaii.[1]
The banyan tree Maui was received as a gift by the Smith family in the 1870s.
The Maui banyan was planted April 24, 1873 by William Owen Smith who at the time was the sheriff of Lahaina.
The tree was planted to mark the 50th anniversary of the arrival of the first Protestant mission in Maui.
The Maui Queen Keōpūolani, wife of late King Kamehameha, invited the mission.
You'll notice that when the sun sets there is a lot of noise as the birds fly back into the banyan tree to find their favourite branch to rest on.
What is also interesting is that there used to be a canal of water down one side of the tree. The canal has been turned into a street but many believe it is still a source of water for the banyan roots.
Aerial roots help support the tree's massive limbs that you'll notice. What the people did to help the aerial roots to reach the ground faster is that they filled mayonnaise jars with water and hung them on the ends of the roots closest to the ground.
The Lahaina banyan tree roots wanted the water and many believe that the tree seemed to increase the speed of growth.
Many people look as this large banyan tree in Maui and think it is many trees joined together with limbs that have grown together - no, it's one tree.
Amazing!

Moku`ula - A Visit With Ke`eaumoku Kapu
- Lying hidden under a parking lot and baseball field in the historic town of Lahaina, Maui is Moku`ula, a place revered since ancient times. It was not only the private residence of King Kamehameha III and a burial site of several Hawaiian royals, but most importantly it served as the capital of the Hawaiian Kingdom until 1845.

Donʻt miss our amazing visit with Ke`eaumoku as he explains why Moku`ula still remains so significant and how todayʻs Maui Aha Moku Council perpetuates the very same systems used there in the days of old.

Lahaina Maui Lei Day
So Samantha was told that Lahaina was not worth the trip to visit while on the island of Maui. Bah! Humbug I scolded her, this is a historic whaling town from the 1800's that was a major part of start of commerce in Hawaii and written about by James Michener in his novel Hawaii. As luck would have it, a retired ladys group was selling fresh picked lei's that day for a charity. They meet 2 Thursdays a month, so just my luck getting off the hook and getting Sam a lei which she wanted. I had refused to get one from the hacks at the airport.
