Public conduct & dress.

Public behavior — clothing, gestures, affection, even gaming — is regulated in some destinations. Locals know the lines; visitors often don't.

Travelers often ask

Is holding hands or hugging a partner okay?

Usually fine, but in some conservative destinations, public affection beyond hand-holding can be treated as an offense.

Do dress codes really matter?

Yes — religious sites, government buildings and some neighborhoods enforce dress codes. A scarf or long-sleeve layer in your bag avoids most problems.
