The King Kamehameha Statue, located in Hilo, Hawaii, serves as a prominent tribute to King Kamehameha the Great, who is celebrated for unifying the Hawaiian islands and establishing a strong monarchy. This eight and a half foot tall sculpture, crafted by American sculptor Thomas R. Gould, embodies the rich cultural heritage of Hawaii through its representation of the king in traditional regalia.

Every June 11, during Kamehameha Day, the statue is adorned with vibrant flower leis in a festive ceremony honoring the legacy of Hawaii's greatest ruler. As the statue stands in Hilo, it joins its counterparts in Honolulu and Washington D.C., each memorializing the leadership and significance of Kamehameha in Hawaiian history.
