Gay Travel Portugal
Portugal has a rich, unique culture, lively cities and beautiful countryside and great beaches. It may now be one of the best value destinations on the Continent. This is because the country offers outstanding landscape diversity, due to its North-South disposition along the western shore of the Iberian peninsula. You can travel in a single day from green mountains in the North, covered with vines and all varieties of trees to rocky mountains, with spectacular slopes and falls in the Centre, to a near-desert landscape in the Alentejo region and finally to the glamorous beach holidays destination Algarve. The climate, combined with investments in the golfing infrastructure in recent years, has also turned the country into a golfing haven. Portugal was recently named "Best Golf Destination 2008" by readers of Golfers Today, a British publication. Fourteen of Portugal's courses are rated in the top 100 best in Europe. If you want a condensed view of European landscapes, culture and way of life, Portugal might very well fit the bill....
Gay life is mostly concentrated in the capital Lisbon where you don't need to hide in the closet. You will also experience an organized gay communtiy in Porto (the second largest city in the country) and within the metropolitan region of Algarve at the southern coast. Portugal has wide-ranging anti-discrimination laws and is one of the few countries in the world to contain a ban on discrimination based on sexual orientation in its Constitution. Same-sex marriage is recognized and, the Law of Gender Identity, said to be the most advanced in the world, which simplifies the process of sex and name change for transgender people.
