The 2010 Taipei International Book Exhibition was the ideal event to present the new “Belize Guide & Map” which took place from January 27th to February 1st.

The Embassy of Belize in Taiwan along with the Central American Trade Office (CATO) also in Taiwan together with support from the Belize Tourism Board and the Embassy of Belize in Taiwan joined efforts in the production of  a “Belize Guide and Map” in Chinese (with English sub-titles).

The Belize Guide & Map was launched at the 2010 Taipei International Book Exhibition held earlier this year from January 27th to February 1st, 2010 by Belize’s Embassy in Taiwan.

The Chinese written Belize Guide & Map was put together by a team of travel writers who visited Belize last year and were hosted by the Belize Tourism Board and the tourism private sector.  It is complete with destination information on Belize’s tourism attractions, maps, lists of “must eat local cuisines”, “must-buy souvenirs”, ‘must-try popular activities” and even a segment on “Plus+ Life in Belize by Taiwanese immigrants”, as well as sources of information in the planning of trips to Belize.   The Guide was developed to promote Belize in Taiwan and other Asian markets interested in visiting Belize.

The Belize Tourism Board is pleased to have partnered with the Embassy of Belize in Taiwan, the Central America Trade Office and the Embassy of Belize in Taiwan in their efforts to promote Belize in Taiwan and Asia and looks forward to a continued working relationship. 

The Asian market has slowly demonstrated interest in Belize both as a vacation and investment destination.
