One of the best trips we have ever taken was when my husband and I went to Oahu in Hawaii. While many people view Hawaii as a must see “bucket list” destination for the breathtaking views, as history lovers its likely your main destination is Pearl Harbor. As with most historical experiences, Pearl Harbor is a somber reminder of monumental sacrifice. You can’t help but feel the weightiness and significance of the site of this historical event that propelled the USA into another global conflict when you visit this place, especially if you take a tour of the USS Arizona Memorial. If you do decide to visit, you can also see the USS Missouri, were the treaty between the USA and Japan was signed, bringing an end to the Pacific Front Conflict. So, in one visit, you can simultaneously see where WW II began and ended for the USA. There are very few places we say are a “must see,” but Pearl Harbor is for sure one of them!
