I recently came across this wonderful Belize Watch Program featuring the Museum of Belize and what’s being showcased there (at that time).

Produced by Rene Villanueva and done in three segments, it was first aired on January 7, 2025. Hence, it’s a bit dated and long, but very educational. If you have time, definitely watch it. If you are in Belize, please take the time to visit the museum … you won’t be disappointed. 🇧🇿 ❤️
