Belmopan

Following the devastating impact of Hurricane Hattie on Belize City in 1961, the government decided to relocate the capital inland. Thus, Belmopan, situated in the Cayo District, was established and became the new, landlocked capital of Belize. Nestled an hour’s drive from both Belize City and San Ignacio, Belmopan offers a tranquil setting with local markets, coffee shops, and restaurants for visitors to explore.
