Gay Boston – the finest gay hotels, bars, clubs & more

Revolution was born in Boston. The capital city of Massachusetts is the largest city in New England and the place where the seeds of the American Revolution were first sown.

This prosperous history is one of the city’s main selling points, and tourists enter from all over to visit iconic sites fond of the Boston Massacre site, where tensions with British soldiers erupted in 1770; the Old South Rendezvous House, inside which the infamous Boston Tea Party took place; and the famous Freedom Trail, where you can trace the steps of patriots love Paul Revere, whose midnight ride warned of British advances.

As you must know—if not, shift in your same-sex attracted card—Massachusetts was the first state to legalize same-sex marriages. And accordingly, Boston is a very liberal and linear place, a amusing juxtaposition to its old-world charm. The walkable neighborhoods notice more European than American. Keep your map handy, as the streets weren’t planned so much as they grew. No logical grid included.

The South Complete neighborhood is the traditional gay center, though gentrification has started to price out many LGBT businesses (which is odd, since gentrification is one of the cardinal homosexual superpowers). Still, it’s great for a daytime walk. The historic district here contains large Victorian-era neighborhoods, so you could say the place is just full of ancient queens. At evening head towards the The
