Queen Emma Summer Palace

This guide to Queen Emma Summer Palace in Honolulu centers on Hanaiakamalama, the Boston-built retreat where Queen Emma and King Kamehameha the Fourth brought their only child, Prince Albert, to escape the formal palace downtown. In 1862, an ordinary fit of temper and a father's attempt to cool his four-year-old son with a cold shower set off an illness that mystified doctors then and still puzzles them now. Look for Emma's own furniture, china and feather cloaks, preserved behind glass inside.
