Is Copan safe for solo female travelers?

Copan can be a very interesting place to visit, rich in Mayan history and culture. While the locals are friendly and helpful, it's wise to take usual travel precautions. For instance, avoid traveling alone at night and keep valuable belongings hidden. The site of the Copan Ruins is relatively safe as this is a key tourist area. Pickpocketing and bag snatching can occur, particularly in crowded places or on public transportation. Overall, attentive and smart behavior will make your visit enjoyable.
