Take a gay-friendly vacation this year

READERS OF TripAdvisor.com and travel writers at About.com weighed in on the cities that are most gay-friendly. Here are a few of their choices. SAN FRANCISCO: One of the U.S.'s most beautiful cities and gay-friendly. The setting is dramatic -- with the hill, the bay and the famous fog. Throw in the charming architecture, world-class restaurants and cultural institutions, and a vibrant multicultural mix. This view overlooks Yerba Buena Gardens, from the deck at the Metreon.
