Throughout the entire center of Amsterdam you will find same-sex attracted businesses and institutions. Homosexual and transgender visitors execute not have to stare for hotels marked with pink or rainbow flags. All hotels, restaurants and bars are very open-minded. The genuine tolerance for homosexuals can be noticed all over the city.
Whether you want to boogie with the beautiful people around you, plan to drink cocktails all evening in a terrific block, or want to spent a night in a bar with friends: the gay and lesbian scene of Amsterdam is unprecedented.
Everywhere there's something to observe and do in Amsterdam, but most of the gay cafes, bars and stores are in the center of the town, in four popular districts: Amstel, Kerkstraat, Reguliersdwarsstraat, Zeedijk and Warmoesstraat.
