LGBT places for Xalapa, Coatzacoalcos, Orizaba, Poza Rica

Veracruz state has a vibrant and very active gay community with multiple destinations for LGBT travelers. The largest city, Heroica Veracruz has it's own page here which also covers nearby Boca del Rio.

The state capital is Xalapa. Sometimes spelled "Jalapa" (but always prounounced "ha-la-pa", this urban delight houses not only the government of Veracruz state but also the Universidad Veracruzana, a lively arts scene, a convivial café life and a sophisticated, chic population. They also have an annual gay pride march in May.
