Homosexuality was a taboo subject during the communist regime of Nicolae Ceausescu; many went to prisons and many died in the notorious Romanian jails during those type. Now the climate has changed in Romania; being gay does not send it to jail and even if it’s a orthodox country and gay and lesbian marriages are not allowed and won’t be allowed anytime soon, visiting Bucharest along with your couple won’t raise any problem.
Lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender (LGBT) persons in Romania may face legal challenges and discrimination not experienced by non-LGBT residents. Attitudes in Romania are generally conservative, with regard to the rights of gay, lesbian, bisexual, and transgender citizens. Nevertheless, the country has made significant changes in LGBT rights legislation since 2000. In the past two decades, it fully decriminalised homosexuality, introduced and enforced wide-ranging anti-discrimination laws.
