  • Although we were warned about pick-pocketing, we never saw any of this and we were walking all over the city all day long. I don't know if instances are exagerated or real. I would still watch out.
    What was more of a danger was crossing streets. There is a lot of traffic and you really have to have nerve to cross it if this is not something you are used to. Watch out for those motorbikes, they'll drive up on the sidewalks if they need to get around traffic.
