Best college town in every state

Best college towns in America: Honolulu, Hawaii (Home of University of Hawaii)
This is Hawaii we’re talking about. It’s hard not to love any of the towns, but near the campus of the University of Hawaii might be overlooked by tourists, but it very much should not be.
The nature near campus is second to none. Sure, there are cool foliage or some mountain ranges at other colleges, but this is Hawaii. This takes nature to another level. Manoa Falls allows you to take in multiple waterfalls with trails from beginner to expert. Koko Head Stairs is one of the crazier hikes you can do on the island. However, once it ends, it’s one of the best views in Hawaii.
The football experience got a little complicated last year when officials condemned Aloha Stadium. Then, with the pandemic, new traditions haven’t been able to come up, but students and fans have shown in the past that this stadium can rock when it needs to, so the future is bright.
Then, there are all of the normal Hawaii traditions. The food and entertainment of a luau is an experience everyone should do at least once in their lifetime. There are the lesser-known Aloha and Hula Festivals, which are also worth a tourist’s time. It will take some time to do all these, but if someone is splurging to go all the way to Hawaii, then there will likely be time to get it all done.
