Belfast a city developing LGBTQ tourism as cities tourism booms.

Belfast has been transforms in recent years from being a city plagued by Troubles and sectarian violence that was absolutely avoided to travellers to a cosmopolitan metropolis slowly tempting tourism back.

The city now offers funky hotels, hedonist nightlife, and modern architecture.

The LGBTQ community is still marginalized due to the countries politics and religion that are still deeply intertwined, so some people still have old fashioned homophobic and transphobic attitudes.

Despite this, or perhaps as a result of it, Belfast, actually has a thriving LGBTQ community and a defined gay quarter where its queer community can come together, support each other and party the night away in peace.
