    If you are ALONE either male or female it's dangerous. In a group (a sensible group less so).
    Why, in what way is it dangerous ? I've never been but was planning on going soon. With the amount of tourists I always thought it would be less dangerous than other CC kips like Talbot st, Abbey st, O Connell st etc.

    At the very least there will be more people around Temple Bar. Alot of other areas are dead at night time which is a bit more unnerving when you run into scumbags.

    16 is way too young to be staying in a hostel on your own. It was ok when I was 16 traipsing around the country but now that I am 48, 16 is too young.
    Enjoy yourself.

    16 is fine. I went on my own to New York and had a job and a flat in Queens when I was 17. The seediness, the noise, the black and Puerto Rican women. I grew up fast.

    I have never found temple bar dangerous ,
    but i heard storys on the radio , of tourists or drunk people getting mugged by drug addicts who hang around the area .
    but i,m male 6ft ,so that may make a difference .
    Just keep your phone and wallet separate ,
    in inside pockets ,
    well hidden from pickpockets .
    And stay sober.
    if you have an expensive phone, don,t use it on the street .
    use it in a shop or a pub.
    people just run up grab your phone and run away .
    This can happen anywhere in the city centre .

    Turn off your radio and you'll be grand.
