"The Dole Plantation is a renovated, working pineapple plantation that blends old and new. The Dole Plantation is dedicated to the perpetuation of the Hawaiian agricultural heritage. Visitors can learn how the Dole enterprise grew from a two-horse farm to the largest producer and marketer of pineapples in the world.
This is also the home of the world's largest maze as officially recognized in the 1998 Guinness Book of World Records. The maze covers more than two acres with 1.7 miles of paths planted with 11,400 colorful Hawaiian plants." - hawaiiweb.com
