How safe is Girona for female travelers?

Solo travel

The historical center is quite small and compact, and the attractions consist of one moderately interesting museum and several interesting churches - nothing is for free. I walked every old street with ancient buildings, visited all the sights and finished in less than 4 hours.

I went to this beautiful little town with my mom for easter, not knowing what to expect. However this city has suprised me a lot. The people there were so friendly and I was very impressed by all the little food places. Especially the Apero on the market square was one of my favourite experiences! The city is remarkable with all the small streets, colourful houses and greenery. A highlight was the easter procession through the whole town

I think is a good place to travel as a female, theres a lot of students here and people are friendly. Nights are good to walk and there is people around all the time. You may evade little streets if you fell more secure

Catalonia, in general, is not dangerous. However, as a girl, I feel scared at night if I have to return alone. Things can always happen, but as a general rule, I have never been mugged or robbed, just as I have almost never felt violated.
