The Mayans called this area home thousands of years ago. Their culture has fascinated archaeologists, historians, artists, and explorers for many years. If you are lucky enough to have the time and means to explore this beautiful country, you should really consider doing so. Perhaps because it is a former British Colony, English is spoken fluently throughout most of this country.

Sometimes the only reason travelers go to Central America at all is to explore the incredible artifacts and buildings of ancient cities. Once thought to be on the periphery of the civilization, excavators now believe that Belize was once the central to the Mayan world.

In the late nineteen thirties, loggers accidentally discovered the remains of Carcacol. Over the years this has become of the largest and most important exploration sites in the country. When you take a tour of this spectacular place, you will be amazed by the intricacy of the carvings depicting curious hieroglyphic symbols.

The gigantic friezes alone are worth studying extensively in an attempt to decipher any sense of their meaning. Touring this remarkable city will give you a new appreciation of how our ancient ancestors thrived during their time.
