Is Rouen Safe for Solo Female Travelers?

Solo travel

Rouen is so beautiful. If you love architecture and art, you’re in luck because this little city houses more than 5 gorgeous cathedrals in it, each one more breathtaking than the other. On the door of each church/cathedral there’s an agenda showing all the programs going on in different churches during the week. So make sure you go visit each church when they open it for service. Because not all the churches are touristic attractions. There is a ceramic museum with free entry, so if you’re into arts, you’re gonna love that as well. The food is a bit pricy in the city and in little cafes. But if you spend some time, you’ll find delicious food with reasonable price as well. I was able to find this Turkish kebab place with a vegan wrap that was super flavorful and about €5! There’s so many bakeries of course, but there is this one bakery called Leon and it has the best cappuccino ever! I’d go back just for that cappuccino alone! In total, this town has so much to offer and I would love to go back. Oh one last thing, people were super amazing and friendly!

As a girl, i don’t feel safe at night but this is not because of the Town but in general Overall i don’t have experiment really bad things personnaly Public transports are great and it’s really a good spot if you want to exit from Paris because it’s not far and it’s also a really good spot to transit for a day if after people want to go to landing beach on the coast

I’d advise you to visit Rouen !! It’s pretty much safe, some neighbourhoods being safer than other ones (e.g Centre ville which is safe but St Sever is risky at night). The transports are relatively intuitive and safe to take
