Digging back through my photos from our 2015 trip to Kauai, I discovered this Lydgate Park Heiau. This covers part of the Hikinaakala Heiau, a sacred area that was once much more built-up. Sadly, when the Hawaiian religion was abolished in the late 1800s, the rocks were torn out and used for roads. This is all that remains.

Thanks for sharing. It is still a unique photo.
It is a shame the other rocks were removed.
Did you get to see the before & after of the park?
