Is Manizales safe for solo female travelers?

Manizales has been experiencing growing tourism due to its coffee cultures, warm locals, and beautiful scenery. As a solo female traveler, it's important to take some safety precautions. During the day, public places are generally safe but it's best to avoid isolated areas and be more vigilant after nightfall. Petty crime such as pickpocketing and bag-snatching can be an issue but is less common if you take precautions like not displaying flashy valuables. Always use official taxis rather than unofficial ones for safe travel.
