Honolulu is the capital city of the state of Hawaii and the seat of government for the City and County of Honolulu (which encompasses O'ahu and the Northwestern Hawaiian Islands stretching to Midway and Kure).

Downtown Honolulu (four miles northwest of Waikiki) sits on the shores of sheltered Honolulu Harbor, where large cruise ships began to arrive in the 1920s and still make port today.
Greater Honolulu stretches about eight miles northwest to southeast, encompassing numerous districts and residential areas. These include Salt Lake, Kalihi, Nuuanu, Ala Moana, Waikiki, Manoa (home to the University of Hawaii-Manoa), Makiki, Diamond Head, Portlock, Kaimuki, Kahala, Waialae, Niu Valley, 'Aina Haina and Hawaii Kai.
Heading northwest from downtown you'll find Honolulu International Airport and neighboring Hickam Air force Base.
