National Assembly Building of Belize, Government building in Belmopan, Belize.
The National Assembly Building houses both the House of Representatives and Senate chambers in two adjoining three-story structures at Independence Plaza.
Constructed in 1970, the National Assembly Building marked the establishment of Belize's legislative center following the relocation of the capital from Belize City.
The legislative building incorporates Pre-Columbian Mayan architectural elements combined with modern structural design principles of the 1970s.
The building opens its doors during parliamentary sessions, allowing citizens to observe the legislative process from designated public viewing areas.
A mahogany mace from 1952 contains carvings that represent the six districts of Belize and chronicles important events in national history.
