| Maui, Hawaii /
The Seven Sacred Pools is part of Haleakala National Park and located
on the eastern part of Maui, about 40 minutes beyond Hana. It is formed by
stream which creates a series of pools and waterfalls as it enters the
ocean. The truth is that there are many more than
7 pools and there is nothing sacred about them, but the name worked since
thousands of tourists visit the area daily. The correct name of this place
is Ohe'o Gulch, it was named The Seven Sacred Pools by the Hotel Hana back
in 1947 to attract tourists. |
