Waikiki is a neighborhood of Honolulu, with a shoreline that extends from the Ala Wai Canal to Diamond Head. The beautiful beaches in Waikiki are fronted by world-class hotels that draw visitors from all over the world. The surf at Waikiki is known for its long rolling break making it popular with long boarders and beginners. For those who prefer a less strenuous form of recreation, the beaches on Waikiki are also perfect for people watching. Once visitors step off the beach, they will find a modern metropolitan city of nearly 1 million people. With a population whose origins span nearly every country on the Pacific Rim, there are many attractions and points of cultural interests in Honolulu. For example, the Chinatown Historic District, a 12-block area bounded by Bethel & Smith Streets and Nimitz Highway and Beretania Street, is home to numerous galleries and restaurants. Another neighborhood that has plenty of amusement and dining options is the corridor along Kapahulu Avenue where you can find local favorites like Leonard's, Izakaya Non-Bei and Ono Hawaiian Foods.
