THE REGION’S ORIGINAL RESIDENTS STILL LIVE ON.

Maya occupation in Belize began as early as 1500 BC, but it was not until sometime between 250 AD and 900 AD that the Maya population is thought to have exceeded 1 million people. However, much about the ancient Maya still remains a mystery.

Maya culture is still alive and well in Belize. Today, you can tour authentic sites left by this great culture and, in many cases, be guided through these sites by a direct descendant. In many cities, you can also find Maya cuisine and festivals celebrating this ancient civilization. Southern Belize also offers homestay programs and cultural immersive experiences.

Pour explorer les sites mayas au Belize, renseignez-vous auprès de votre hôtel ou des voyagistes locaux dans tout le pays pour savoir quels anciens temples mayas sont ouverts à l'exploration. Et si vous en avez l'occasion, n'oubliez pas de parler avec des familles mayas contemporaines. Elles seront heureuses de vous parler de leur culture et de partager des histoires qui ont été transmises de génération en génération.
