Bhopal is a safe destination for the traveller who follows the rules and plays safe. For the foolhardy, no place may be safe if his luck runs out. So be extremely alert in the dark and try your best to be in a familiar area when it gets dark. One of the things that protect travellers to India is the vast crowd in most places. The multitudes however, disappear into their homes at night, and you go from having a huge thick safety quilt to a flimsy sheet! Political disturbances and riots are usually localised and everyone's aware well in advance of potentially troubled days ahead. Cases of mugging, theft and worse aren't completely unheard of but by and large serious crimes against travellers are few and far between.

It's hopefully been a great tour of town .
