My mentned plac aren't exactly cheap for an average Colombian, and some like Rumours are equented by wealthier crowd, so I spect there are plac for poorer gay Colombians to go to, too, but I know nothg about them nor whether would be safe to vis them. From glor mounta tops to Caribbean ast, om lh jungle to hip and happeng ci, Gay Colombia has credible rich for travelers to experience. Lat Ameri might not have the bt reputatn for beg gay-iendly, but that’s a story that’s startg to change and, fact, Colombia is one of Lat Ameri’s most progrsive untri terms of LGBT rights.

There’s also a boomg LGBT tourism scene centred on Mell, Bogota and Cartagena – so, far om beg somewhere to avoid, ’s somewhere gay travellers should actively seek out!
