LGBTQ+ Europe, Germany, Saxony, Leipzig
Don't be complacent about rights affecting Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender and Questioning (or Queer) (LGBTQ) people. Rights vary greatly by country or legal jurisdiction – encompassing everything from the legal recognition of same-sex marriage to the death penalty for homosexuality. According to Wikipedia as of July 2020, the penal codes of nine United Nations-recognised countries, Afghanistan, Brunei, Iran, Iraq, Mauritania, Nigeria, Saudi Arabia, Somalia, and Yemen, impose the death penalty for homosexuality.
These days Germany shouts ‘just come visit us’ across its many LGBT cultured and liberal feeling cities. From its northwest with Hamburg and Cologne to its gay mecca of Berlin and its other great gay cities to the south, Munich and Dusseldorf, the Euro gay traveller is spoilt for choice in this no-nonsense, get what you see and ask for country. Whether you’re looking for more traditional city breaks, art, culture, architecture or landscape you have some of the best locations in Europe, if not the world. On the other hand If you’re more interested in the deep gay scene whether vanilla or the friskier end, you have no end of options.Berlin is where some of the famous action is (without going into too much detail here) but you need to have a bit of weight in your wallet for a lot of the nightlife, though there are still bargains to be found if you search the venues and accommodation options on Pink UK. If money is still an issue, then check out the options in Cologne and other provincial cities. Whatever you decide, just go there and talk ‘straight’ to the locals - if that isn’t too strange a thing to say for a gay traveller.
