How safe is Banja Luka?

I haven't been around much. But as far as I know, it's safe and secure for a night walk, travelling alone, and most of the people are kind and understanding. It's all good and fun and I'm curious to meet new people.

Banja Luka is generally a safe city. People are friendly and welcoming, and issues like theft or violence are rare. As in any city, you should take care of your personal belongings, especially in crowded places like markets or public transport. At night, it's best to stick to well-lit and busy streets. Overall, Banja Luka is a peaceful and pleasant place to visit or live in.

Is Banja Luka worth visiting?

Group travel

It's so safe, The food is first class even at the local shops, You can do anything you want in the city, Some hill areas were restricted when I gone hicking, so I probably don't know much about that,
