Post image for What is the best gay bar, club or hotel in Sydney?

Being gay in Sydney is great with our selection of gay bars and clubs, but what is your favourite?

Whether your gay scene in Sydney is a laid back beverage with some bears or you want to dance until morning… there’s almost certainly a gay venue for you in Sydney. But where are the greatest gay places in Sydney, and why?

We’ve all heard about certain suburbs of Sydney which are sprouting up with miles and miles of enormous houses that seem far too humongous for any reasonably sized family. Your usual McMansion floor plans are usually more like a palace than a house.

Critics argue their place in managing smart growth of suburbs. It’s better to have a humble house, they proclaim – particularly in the housing market we’re confronted with. But there’s lots of areas out there crowded with these types of homes.

Possibly they’re on their way out – a quick check at websites such as Realestate.com.au shows numerous McMansions for sale today.

So where is the crummiest location in Sydney filled with Mc Mansions and why?
