Belize — San Ignacio (Cahal Pech)

A short walk from our San Ignacio hotel is Cahal Pech, which I wander off to on my own (my wife decides to stay and lounge by the pool). The oldest known Maya site on the Belize River valley, Cahal Pech is believed to have been a significant Maya settlement for 2000 years or more. Today it represents a striking example of Preclassic Maya architecture.
