Loading. Please wait...  Gay life in Saint-Petersburg
In Soviet times, Russia's gay scene was completely underground. After perestroyka, attitudes towards and laws about homosexuality started to change, and, in 1993, was decriminalised. In a lot of ways, Russia remains more conservative than most European countries, which may be why the gay scene in St. Petersburg is smaller and more hidden than you would expect for a city of almost five million.
I will assist you with trying to meet the local Gay population in the city. Also, you may meet someone of interest at the local bars and Bath houses. Prepare yourself for a good time.
