Is Ujjain safe for solo women travellers and pilgrims?

Yes, Ujjain is generally considered safe for solo women pilgrims. The temple areas are well-managed and policed, especially during festival periods. Standard pilgrimage precautions apply: keep valuables secure, dress modestly (required for temple entry anyway), use pre-paid autos or confirmed cabs, and if arriving late at night, book accommodation in advance near the temple complex.
