There are a few good reasons why it pays to plan for a gay trips to Denmark and of course the main reason is that this Scandinavian nation offers its gays virtually the same rights as are available to straight Danes. In fact, gays in Denmark have some pretty extensive rights and Danes too themselves are permissive and will not look too unkindly at people with gay leanings.

Way back in 1933 Denmark legalized homosexuality and then in the year 1979 it went a step further and lowered the age of consent to just fifteen years which is applicable for gay sex as well as heterosexual sex. So, regardless of your sexual leanings you can, after reaching your fifteenth birthday have sex without breaking any laws.

Copenhagen is of course the capital of not only Denmark but it is also the capital city for gay travel destinations in Denmark. So, it will not be difficult for you to find the gay locales in this very vibrant capital city of Denmark and if you want some help you should buy the guidebook called Lonely Planet that will describe the gay scene in Copenhagen as being one of the liveliest in the whole of Europe.

Copenhagen that is also often referred to as the fairy city has a vibrant gay life that is quite widespread. There are in fact some very steamy dark rooms where gays gravitate to including the Body Bio sex club and also the LBL-Ungdom gay youth group and in addition there is also the annual Pride festival that draws many gays who come and stay in the hotels and restaurants owned almost entirely by gays. In addition, Copenhagen also holds the Queer Festival and then there is the Gay and Lesbian Film Festival that too attract many gays.

Most gays that live in Copenhagen tend to stay in the old part of the city where there is much to entertain the gays including fun and entertainment that is centered in just a single square kilometer of the city. About 80 years ago, Copenhagen saw its first gay bar that thrives today even though many other bars and cafes catering to gays have sprung up in the intervening years.

Some examples of what you can get here if you are a gay include the Body Bio sex club and then there is also the LBL-Ungdom gay youth group as well as the Queer Festival and there is even a Gay and Lesbian Film Festival that is very popular among gays.

The Copenhagen Pride Festival is held in Copenhagen annually in the month of August and this is an event that attracts numerous gays from other Scandinavian countries as well as from different parts of the world.

The bottom line is that if you are planning for a gay trip to Denmark then you should focus your attention to paying a visit to the gay part of Copenhagen where there are virtually limitless events to take part in that will keep you well satisfied.
