Is Burma Safe for traveling alone
The answer is Yes. Women travelling alone are likely to have no problem in all the touristic areas. Since the country opened its door to the world there are only few cases of harrasment due to culture shocks but no crime on women reported so far.

Restricted things to do
Generally, tourists are welcomed in both famous places and off beaten track areas. There are certain local rules that you should respect :
- Wearing knee covered clothes when visiting religious sites
- Taking off shoes and walk on bare foots only for temples and pagodas.
- Women should avoid physical contact with novice and monks
- In Golden Rock / Kyaikhtiyo, it is restricted that only man can touch this holy rock, not women.
