| Description: |
On New River in Orange Walk, exhibitions display the district's rich history, from ancient Maya ceramics and carvings found at Lamanai, to less ancient weapons and tools of European mahogany cutters and Maya chicleros, the men who tapped trees for the sticky chicle used in chewing gum. Photographs chronicle the town and it's leading industry, sugarcane. Visitors learn about the Maya and Mestizo people who live here now.
Banquitas House of Culture opens 10am to 6pm Tuesday to Friday and 8am to Noon on Saturday.
