Safety at night:Safe
Luang Namtha is generally safe for solo female travellers even during the night, however, like anywhere, it's worth taking sensible precautions. The locals are very friendly and crime rates are relatively low. Streets can get dark due to a lack of proper street lighting in some areas, so it's more about being cautious not to trip over than fearing crime. However, it is always advisable to avoid poorly lit and deserted areas late at night.
