Braga is a very safe city. Never I was molested by someone to ask me something. I don't know in my friend's circle anyone who was assaulted or insulted. Many people write fake facts to smear racism and xenophobia, usually they don't describe facts but just rumours and rumours are frequently untrues.
If someone was molested or know about
Others,must describe with dates, time, persons involved and what exactly happened. Other way will be suspicious of a fake information.

The people that said that Braga is unsafe is wrong, they are just saying that so this site is right, i know people who lived in Braga fro 20 years, and where never mugged they only witnessed someone get mugged once in the 20 years they lived in Braga

The comments made here are 100% from people that use these type of websites to unleash their hate. The only thing that happens are the usual stuff, if you go to the university bars you might find drugs, and some fights once in a while.. but that happens pretty much everywhere, just drunk kids trying to show off.
