Hyatt Regency Maui Resort and Spa
Lahaina Maui Hawaii

Maui island, also known also as "The Valley Isle", is the second largest island in the chain. Maui is known for its world-famous beaches, the Iao Valley, migrating humpback whales (in winter), and spectacular Haleakala sunsets and sunrises.
In Tang China, the horse was the emblem of wealth and power. They are meant to embody rank and speed.
Tang horses were made in China as tomb accessories for the comfort and use of the deceased in the afterlife. They were a symbol of status, and are usually found in the tombs of the rich and powerful, as well as the imperial family.

Valued for their strength and endurance, horses symbolised power and status in ancient China and were even believed to transport souls to the next world, writes Allen Wang
Tang horses are among the most famous works of Chinese art. For the collector, they have endless appeal, their stylized arched necks, pricked ears and strong bodies exude confidence, distinction and charm.
These ancient Chinese pottery steeds are found in every kind of decor: minimalist, country, French, even deconstructivist. Their appeal is universal.
The equine depictions are often in frantic positions: whinnying with their heads raises and nostrils flared, or twisting around to get at something on their backs.
