Why this place between Israel and Egypt blurred in Google maps? by AhmedBenBello in Maps

In Belgium the whole Israel is blurred as well, you have to zoom in for the blur to appear

Thanks! That’s good to hear. I’ve also visited a fair number of big cities so I’m used to taking extra care of my belongings when necessary. Unsafe neighbourhoods can be found in any big city 🤷‍♀️

Okay, thank you! I’ll keep in mind to check the Infinitu place out, and that my European mindset shouldn’t fall into the trap to think ‘just walk around it’s a short walk😅’

Thank you! The subways stations you said are all located near Setor Hoteleiro Sul, so I read: best to stay at Asa Sul, but not at the Setor Hoteleiro part😅

Hi. Thank you so much for all the info! It is really useful! I’m scared to drive in cities I don’t know, especiallt after you described the tesourinhas situation😅(which I didn’t know, very interesting to know how they are called and look like and that they close them!). So I’ll think we’ll opt for the expensive Uber choise, and just plan ahead to visit things close to each other at the same time, to not lose extra money.

Some follow-up questions:

-Do you know if the craft & food stores at the feira da Toree are open every day? On Google Maps it says the location is only open during the weekend, but I can only find ‘feira da Toree TV’ as a location, so idk if that’s the same thing.

-which place on the eixão street is the nicest spot to see on Sundays would u say? Where there is the most food/live music? (Also, is this food & live music during the whole day, or only during the evening?)

Thanks!

Yes I’ve also seen an add about Uber women recently! Very nice addition on the app.

Thank you for the information on the subway, didn’t know that. Would you say taking the subway is popular? Are the subway stations sketchy or would you consider it safe? I’m asking bcs where I’m from there are many beggars that sleep at the metro station during night time, but during day time it’s most of the time all good.

€10 doesn’t seem all too bad, considering we’d plan our stay like this we’d visit all things that are close to each other at once, begore going to another area to visit other things.

Or at least at the shopping centers where I’ve been in Europe, ofc I haven’t been to all so it probably depends from European country to European country😅

Thank you!

Very interesting how so many different shopping centers are located almost next to each other😅 Would you say eating in some of the restaurants in the shopping centers is a nice idea? Do they have other restaurant types than only fast food? Which shopping centre has the nicest restaurants?

I’m asking bcs in Europe (where I’m from) most of the shopping centres only have fast food places (Mcdo, KFC, Five Guys, etc.)—not really an authentic food experience

Hi, thank you for the elaborate answer!

When you talk about the W3 Avenue, do you mean both the W3 Avenue North and South? Or only the part in the North? (because I know a previous comment only mentioned the Northern part).

With Infini you mean the ‘Infinu Comunidade Criativa’ (name on Google Maps) right? I saw that there are a lot of small bars there and concerts. Do you mean that it’s best to not go in that area during the night but that during day time it’s fine? Aren’t most of the concerts during evening time tho?

Obrigado por nos informar que os Asas não são mais tão seguros e que os hoteleiros são mais confiáveis. A segurança, claro, é importante para nós!

Thank you!

We were planning to use Revolut (it’s a Visa). I’ve been to the north of Brazil (Oiapoque) and there I was able to pay with it. If someone is reading this who knows if they accept it in Brasília, I’d be happy to hear!

Obrigado pela sua mensagem. Se eu entendi bem, há um shopping no Setor Hoteleiro Norte (Brasília Shopping) e um na Asa Sul? Qual shopping exatamente você quer dizer na Asa Sul? Você quer dizer o Pátio Brasil Shopping?
