You also get to enjoy the availability of current gen gadgets on stores as well as the services of modern innovations such as Wi-Fi.
Unpopular to Tourists

It is now a lot safer compared to the other major cities in the country. Its lack of popularity is a huge advantage for the few tourists who visit it. They get to enjoy low prices and don’t have to line up to get the best amenities. And since they don’t get many tourists, the establishments you visit will treat you like kings.
Complex and Exciting
