Hawaii is a state in the United States. Located in the center of the Pacific Ocean, it covers an area of ??17,000 square kilometers and consists of more than 20 volcanic islands and coral islands, including 8 larger islands. Population: 1.2 million. The original name comes from the Polynesian word Originalhome, which means "original home".

Hawaii Island is the largest island in the archipelago and is famous for its volcanic wonders. The 1,247-meter-high Kilauea volcano in the southeast of the island is an active volcano that does not rest all year round, and lava erupts almost every day. The hot lava flow was like a pot of boiling molten steel, rolling up and down, forming a "fire lake" 4 kilometers long and 130 meters deep. When volcanic activity is more intense, lava flows from the edge of the lake of fire, forming spectacular lava waterfalls, lava rivers, and even lava fountains. The local indigenous people call this lake of fire "Halimomo", which means "House of Eternal Flame". At night, the lava springs ejected from the Lake of Fire into the sky form a charming "holiday fireworks." The splashing lava will also condense into hair-like filaments, which the locals call "Vulcan Hair".

To the west of Kilauea volcano, there is also Mauna Loa volcano with an altitude of 4170 meters, which is the highest island volcano in the world.

Although these two volcanoes erupt frequently, they are not violent. The lava has low viscosity and strong fluidity, so it is not easy to block the channels, so it has become a good place for people to watch the volcanoes. At the beginning of this century, the United States listed this place as "Hawaii Volcanoes National Park".

Oahu is the third largest island in the Hawaiian Islands, with a length of 64 kilometers, a width of 42 kilometers, and an area of ??1,554 square kilometers. Honolulu (Honolulu), the capital of the state of Hawaii, is located on the island of Oahu. To the south of Oahu is Pearl Harbor, the largest naval base in the United States.

Kauai is the second largest island in the Hawaiian Islands. It has the highest rainfall in the world and is known as the "rainiest island" in the world. The average annual rainfall here is 11,684 mm. The northeastern slope of the island has the most precipitation on the island, with 350 rainy days every year. However, separated only by a mountain range, the southwest of Kauai is a desert with an annual rainfall of only 460 mm, less than 4% of that in the northeast. What's even more amazing is that when people walk on these sand dunes, the dunes will make a "woof" sound; if they run on the beach, they will make a thunderous sound. The drier the weather, the louder the sound. Scientists are exploring and studying these strange natural phenomena.
