Old City inside moat is generally safe 9pm — locals walk dogs, shops close early, low violent crime. Stick lit moat roads; avoid dark sois after midnight. Songkran and festival nights different chaos. Grab home if tired — 40–60 baht cross moat. Bar touts rare in Old City vs Loi Kroh. Trust gut on drunk groups. CM is softer than Bangkok; still standard solo precautions.

Temple dogs bark — carry stick or wide berth, rarely bite.
