There are many cities around the world that welcome and embrace the gay community. They provide safe spaces and have neighborhoods and businesses where gays can work and hang out or visit and explore openly.



1. Vancouver, Canada

The city of Vancouver is on the west coast of Canada, nestled between the beautiful mountains and the Pacific Ocean. With ski hills only a half hour from downtown, you can easily spend the morning on the slopes, the afternoon on the beach and the evening at a club. The city has a vibrant night life and not just for gays. There are two prominently gay neighborhoods in Vancouver with Davie Village being where the nightclubs and gay men hang out and Commercial Drive where the lesbians enjoy hanging out in coffee shops and galleries.
