to make it simple....YES. the law is quite permissive when it comes to taking pictures. The only places (as far as I know) where you are not allowed to shoot are shopping malls (if stipulated at the entrance) and photographing people without asking permission. The second instance applies especially to LOCALS (women) and I strongly advise you to refrain or to ask permission, if you find someone less conservative. Also I am not sure if cameras are allowed in the mosques. Hope this helps! Happy shooting :D!
