Unlike straight travellers, the LGBT travellers may not find it comfortable visiting every tourist destination. The prying eyes, the hushed voices around, the stares, all make it difficult for a peaceful vacation.
Here are some places in India where the lesbians and gays can go hand in hand without being stared at or being alienated.
