A city gets completely devastated by a hurricane, but the hurricane is not able to crush the spirits of the people living in it and they built a new city for themselves.. A tale like this would make a good book…and it would be based on a true set of events of what happened about forty years ago in a place just south of Mexico. This is the reality the capital of Belize – Belmopan.
Belmopan was constructed to the east of Belize River, 80 km inland from the former capital, the port of Belize City that was destructed by a hurricane in 1961. There is a growing number of people that have decided that this city is worth visiting or, like me, have decided to make it a new home. Fortunately, whenever visiting this new capital city there is a Belmopan hotel available to meet almost any taste.
There are many interesting things to see in the Belmopan area such as the Mopan river, the Blue Hole and ancient caves used by the Mayan and fortunately there are hotels in Belmopan located by these places.
If you want to visit a place that is near the rain forest and the mountains then come to Belmopan since there are a wide variety of hotels right in the area – there is bound to be a Belmopan hotel for you. Since there are so many people that visit Belmopan looking for a different experience most of these hotels are prepared to handle almost every types of visitor from single travelers to large families. Also, there are a host of bread and breakfast hotels in Belmopan that cater to the requirements of budget conscious travelers.
There are no 5 star hotels in the Belmpan area but there are still several places you can stay at with a high level of service. They offer facilities like Internet in the rooms, wireless, television, tea and coffee making facilities, telephone and a host of other facilities, making the stay of their guests truly memorable and pleasurable.
When you come to Belize for a visit make sure to consider staying at a hotel in Belmopan during your stay.
