Production & Preservation Note: Completed in 1882, the historic Iolani Palace stands as the only official royal palace on United States soil. This 1968 sequence captures the landmark's pristine exterior fabric just as it was becoming a foundational cornerstone of Hawaiian television history. Beyond its appearance in I Dream of Jeannie, the palace's distinctive structural facade is globally recognized as the headquarters building for the original Hawaii Five-O series, maintaining an exceptional degree of architectural integrity and meticulous preservation across more than half a century of active location filming.
In this second installment of our filming locations guide for the
I Dream of Jeannie episode
Battle of Waikiki, we travel to the heart of Honolulu to visit the historic
Iolani Palace.
A Television Icon - From Jeannie to Hawaii Five-O
The Iolani Palace is one of the most recognizable filming locations in Hawaii. While it served as a regal backdrop for Jeannie, Major Nelson and Major Healy in 1968, it is perhaps most famous for appearing dozens of times as the headquarters in the classic series
Hawaii Five-O. More recently, the palace was featured in the 2009 film
Princess Kaiulani.
Preserving the 1960s Aesthetic
Remarkably, the palace has been so beautifully maintained that it looks exactly as it did when it was captured on film over 50 years ago. Check out the Quick Preview of our
I Dream of Jeannie Iolani Palace filming location then and now video above for a great look at this legendary Honolulu landmark.
