    In the capital women are as emancipated as in any other major European city. If a degree of machismo still exists, it is minimal today, and women are increasingly reaching high positions in all walks of life. For women exploring the city on their own, the degree of hassle experienced is scarcely different from that found in Paris or London.

    For general advice to female travelers, check out the award-winning website Journeywoman (www.journeywoman.com), a "real life" women's travel-information network where you can sign up for a free e-mail newsletter and get advice on everything from etiquette and dress to safety; or the travel guide Safety and Security for Women Who Travel by Sheila Swan and Peter Laufer (Travelers' Tales, Inc.), offering commonsense tips on safe travel.
