Makawao is popularly known as a "paniolo" or cowboy town. Formerly the service center for area homesteads, ranches and plantations, the town has retained it's distinctly unique Old West/Hawaiian Plantation flavor.
Every July the annual Makawao Rodeo and parade commemorate its past, and every so often one will find a horse tied to a hitching post along the main thoroughfares.Today funky boutiques, quaint New Age shops, colorful restaurants and art galleries line Baldwin and Makawao Avenues. Artists and writers are drawn to the off-beat atmosphere of Makawao, as are ride-down-the-mountain cyclists and colorful Hawaiian cowboys-at-heart.
