What You Should Know about El Pilar

What You Should Know about El Pilar | Cayo Scoop!  The Ecology of Cayo Culture | Scoop.it

Belize Adventure has a nice article about El Pilar.

 

"The name of El Pilar means watering basin, which is quite understandable if you consider the location of this ancient city.  If you want to pinpoint the exact location of this ancient Mayan city, it’s safe to note that you can access it via San Ignacio as well as the Bullet Tree Falls.  These are placed on the Belize River.  Many underground streams are found here and that’s the reason why you will find an abundance of vegetation in this particular location.  Again, this is understandable if you take into consideration the uniqueness of this place and the amazing benefits that it can deliver for any visitor."

While the San Ignacio Resort Hotel won the Hotel of the Year award, Placencia really stole the show, as it should have.  A special Lifetime Achievement Award went to Jessie Young of CBS.  Belize Adventure has all the BTB videos.  Congratulations to all the winners!

 

"Yesse Young of the Community Baboon Sanctuary in Bermudian Landing received the Lifetime Achievement Award.  This award is given to a person who is bold enough to take risks and gloriously leads in the development of tourism in Belize.  They are selfless individuals who strive to improve not only their environment but the lives of everyone around them!"
