Is Kyoto safe for solo female travelers?

Group travel

I was traveling Kyoto with my friends(all girls 💅). Kyoto gave me super safe, super beautiful, super chill atmosphere. The hostel room are big, convenient to reach, big bath tub that you can completely rest. The monuments were preserved, kimono experience was great. macha, sushi,ramen, and yakiniku were all tasty🤤. I want to travel again and again！

Solo travel

Kyoto is very safe for traveling alone, also for girls. I wasn’t scared of hanging around also during night time. I recommend to visit all the main temples and shrines in Kyoto because they are worth visiting. The food is amazing!!!

Solo travel

I feel very safe, but I don't like the food. Tokyo's food is much better than Kyoto's. Kyoto is a very quaint city with not much activity. I am staying in a hostel by myself and haven't had much opportunity to meet anyone. However, the people of Kyoto are nice.

Solo travel

Fantastic! Best first solo travel experience. Cheap food, amazing culture, extremely friendly Japanese folks ready to help you out. Many of them speak English too! I never felt unsafe as a petite female.

Solo travel

Kyoto The city I have always wanted to see. [Even in Kyoto— hearing the cuckoo’s cry— I long for Kyoto] ~ Matsuo Basho's haiku I felt very connected to this city. As an artist, I love quiet and old environments. Unfortunately, the Kyoto I imagined in my head was completely different from the reality. In my mind, Kyoto was a symbol of unforgettable beauty. Don’t get me wrong; I think Kyoto is beautiful, but it feels like an old poem whose words no longer come together, even though they once had meaning. I wish I could have stayed in Kyoto when it was the capital. I want to see houses that were owned by feudal lords long ago. I wish I could feel love under the moon of Kyoto... but this moon felt different. I think the air is different in a place where legends of death remain.

Kyoto is a very beautiful city where I found myself very safe. I spent 4 nights and 5 days there. I used to go out at daytime and come back at the dark. I could walk alone in the streets at night time without feeling stressed because my hotel was in the city center full of people and very safe

while Japan can sometimes be a little scarier in terms of sexual harassment (especially Tokyo or Osaka) I haven’t had any experiences that went beyond weird stares on the train. You still have to be careful with stalkers and being followed on the street at nighttime.

I would say its pretty safe and often come home late and never had any unsafe situations. In general I would say that about Japan. I had a little situation in a train during rush hour but I still think it’s safer than most places

It is very hot and there is a lot of rain. In general, it seems like a very safe and peaceful city. It's just a little small and there are few activities to do. I'm a little bored alone.ı hope ı meet someone
