The Maya are one of the most advanced, ancient civilizations of the New
World known today - dating back over 3000 years. During their reign in
Central America, the Maya constructed huge stone cities and temples
that are still a mystery to present day scientists - how did they build these
enormous stone structures, make unprecedented astronomical
observations and mathematically discover infinity?

Quoted from a Washington Post article about Belize, Washington Post staff writer K.C. Summers
explains. "I've swum the waters of half a dozen Caribbean islands, but never before have I seen such
a vast array of marine life in one place. Rainbow parrotfish and yellowtail snappers, blue-spotted
damsels and striped
sergeantmajors, four-foot
nurse sharks and playful
stingrays. I feel like an extra in
a Discovery Channel special.
In Belize, you're speechless a
lot. Get used to it."
