The Court of Honor, National Memorial Cemetery of the Pacific
Manoa-Makiki is an area of Honolulu, made up of the neighborhoods of Manoa, Makiki, and Nu'uanu, located in the foothills of the Ko'olau Mountains north of Downtown Honolulu. These neighborhoods are situated in valleys which extend into the Ko'olau Range, with the lower reaches of the neighborhoods made up of unpretentious bungalows, 1960's cinderblock walkup apartments and small businesses, to the upper reaches of upscale apartment and condo complexes on the hillsides. Manoa is best known as the home of the University of Hawai'i at Manoa, the main branch of the largest university in the Hawaiian Islands. Makiki is set beneath the scenic Tantalus area and the National Memorial Cemetery of the Pacific within the Punchbowl crater, and has gained recent fame as the birthplace and childhood home of President Barack Obama.
