Belize is a small country located on the northeastern coast of Central America. It is bordered to the north by Mexico, to the south and west by Guatemala, and to the east by the Caribbean Sea. Despite its small size, Belize is known for its rich biodiversity and stunning natural landscapes, including jungles, rainforests, and the second-largest barrier reef in the world.
The capital city of Belize is Belmopan, while its largest city is Belize City. English is the official language, making it unique in Central America where Spanish is predominant. The country has a population of around 400,000 people, with a blend of cultures, including Mestizo, Creole, Garifuna, and various Mayan descendants, reflecting its diverse history.
Belize is famous for its eco-tourism and adventure activities, such as snorkeling, diving, and exploring ancient Mayan ruins. It is home to several protected areas, including the Belize Barrier Reef Reserve System, which has been designated a UNESCO World Heritage Site. This makes Belize a popular destination for both nature lovers and history enthusiasts.
