How safe is Beyoglu for female travelers?

Solo travel

Honestly a very touristic place that locals doesn’t hang out that much. It’s is more expensive than usual since it’s a touristic area. A lot of nice restaurants,art shops,galleries and museums. It’s not one of those dangerous /avoid going places but (in case you’re clubbing and such) be careful if you’re out after midnight till morning. Avoid going/passing by tarlabaşı.
