Belize is one of the five states of Central America, on whose territory in ancient times the legendary Mayan kingdom spread. 40% of Belize’s territory is occupied by national parks and nature reserves, famous not only for the riot of colors of tropical rainforests and a variety of wild animals, but also for the ruins of the Mayan civilization, lost in their wilds.
Well, now, the TOP-5 things that need to be done, once you are in Belize:
- To see a large blue hole from a bird's eye view. A hole is a round karst funnel with a diameter of about 305 meters, extending to a depth of 120 meters.
- Take a walk on the largest archaeological site of the Maya Indians in Central America - Karakol. In 650, the city square of Karakol had a radius of about 10 kilometers.
- See artifacts that are more than a thousand years old in the cave Aktun-Tunichil-Muknal.
- Visit the Coral Island Half Moon Cay. Since 1996, the coral island has been a UNESCO World Heritage Site. There are no hotels, restaurants and other attributes of a comfortable stay. Therefore, the island was chosen by divers, ecotourism lovers and wildlife lovers.
- Go on a boat trip to the Belize barrier reef. Its length is more than 280 km, in its scale it is second only to the Great Barrier Reef, located off the coast of Australia. The most exciting excursions are on boats with a transparent bottom.
