Is Nay Pyi Taw safe for solo female travelers?

Nay Pyi Taw is generally considered a safe destination for solo female travelers. This city is Myanmar’s capital and is fairly undeveloped and quiet. It has significantly less tourist and street crime than other Asian cities. However, always practice common safety precautions such as not wandering around alone at night, always informing someone about your plans, and avoiding demonstrations and protests. The lack of local bustle and tourists gives this city a peaceful feel but also means there are fewer amenities and safety infrastructures typically available in more developed cities.
