Do Not Drink Tap Water

Source: https://m.dw.com

Fortunately most tourists follow this rule. Just to be sure, when in an impoverished country, never trust tap water to be safe. It may have microbes that can upset your stomach at the very least. Bottled water is always safer. Just make sure you purchase it from a certified outlet, like a grocery, store, or bottled water retailer. Street vendors selling bottled water are mostly scammers. They fill empty bottles with tap water and reseal them. So stay safe, and always hydrate regularly.
