The 10 best LGBT destinations in the world
The 10 best LGBT destinations in the world
1. MELBOURNE, AUSTRALIA
Melbourne is one of the best cities to live in, not only in Australia but also in the world. It is therefore logical that it is also a gay tourist destination : it is modern and cosmopolitan, with many attractions for all audiences.
You can spend your days exploring the city and having a coffee at one of the many cafes, or visit Fitzroy ‘s queer bookstore . The gay scene is new and low-key – it’s more about creative cocktails in bars than glittery parties, although there are regular parties if you like to dance !
2. MONTREAL, CANADA
We’ve talked many times before on the Blog about how Canada is a multicultural country and embraces all ethnic groups, so Montreal couldn’t miss being on the list. Montreal stands out for its hospitality and its rich and active cultural life. If you travel to this Canadian city, you will not be short of interesting plans for all audiences.
The famous Gay Village is an area that has a set of columns in the colors of the gay flag and a Tourist Information Center for the L G B T community . Do not stop:
• Walk under the glass roof of the colored balls on rue Sainte-Catherine .
• Stay close and in touch with Montreal’s drag queen extraordinaire, Mado .
• Step back in time at the vintage shops of Amherst Street .
• Flirt with passers-by from one of the many summer terraces.
• Celebrate Montreal Pride , the city’s annual Pride celebrations.

The City of Light has been the scene of several revolutions that have changed the history of humanity. It’s not for nothing that it’s also one of the best L G B T destinations in the world!

The area to walk around is Soho , in the West End, where there are also restaurants, shops and cafes.
Oh, you can also stop by Brighton , which in August adorns its streets with flags to celebrate the Brighton Gay Pride Parade ! It is the largest in the country.
7. CAPE TOWN, SOUTH AFRICA
As much as L G B T Q wrestling has recently taken hold in South Africa and the African continent, Cape Town has a pretty strong gay scene.
South Africa legalized gay marriage in 2006 and has since opened the doors to an incredible queer community! The Gay Pride Parade is the largest on the continent and the party does not stop there, in December the Mother City Queer Project is celebrated , a parade full of color and brightness.
8. PHUKET, THAILAND
Thailand is known for its breathtaking natural beauty. However, it should be noted that the country has always been very open to L G B T Q rights .
The Gay Pride Parade party has been celebrated since the 1990s where funds are raised for foundations that fight for the cure of AIDS . With various psychological aid projects, there are many houses and spaces dedicated to supporting members of the community.
Beautiful beaches and an L G B T Q friendly destination? What are you waiting for ?
9. AMSTERDAM, NETHERLANDS
You still have one European country to visit: the Dutch capital is one of the first to legalize same-sex marriage! Amsterdam is already known for its diverse lifestyle, with pharmacies and sex shops, but its L G B T Q attractions are plentiful too.

10. FORT LAUDERDALE, USA
San Francisco started with the gay scene in the United States and around the world, but since the 1970s Fort Lauderdale has also been a very popular destination for members of the gay community.
