💡 Tips for Visitors

Visit in the early evening (6-9 PM) to experience the neon atmosphere while avoiding the later night crowds and seedier establishments. Stick to main streets and reputable establishments, and be cautious of touts trying to lure you into overpriced bars. Many restaurants and bars accept credit cards, but carry cash for smaller venues, and use Google Translate or point at menu pictures as English support varies.
