Belize: The Pearl of the Caribbean in Central America

Located in eastern Central America, bordered by the Caribbean Sea to the east, Mexico to the north and Guatemala to the south, Belize is the only country in Central America where English is the official language (Creole is commonly spoken). The capital city of Belmopan is the political center of the country, while the population is mainly distributed along the coastline. The country's economy is based on tourism, with the world's second-largest barrier reef system, the famous "Big Blue Hole" dive site, and Mayan civilization sites such as Caracol and Xunantunich, while tropical rainforests, wildlife preserves (such as the Howler Monkey Sanctuary), and the distinctive Mayan culture attract tourists from around the world. In agriculture, sugarcane, citrus and bananas are the main export crops, and fisheries are abundant. As a member of the Commonwealth, Belize combines the warmth of the Caribbean with the multiculturalism of Central America, making it an ideal destination for eco-tourism and cultural exploration.
