Financial experts at money.co.uk looked at what cities across the world are most accepting towards the LGBTQ+ community.

They did this by taking into account things like the number of gay bars, the average ratings of these bars and clubs, and the number of these clubs per 100,000 residents, among other things.

The Icelandic capital, Reykjavic, topped the list, ahead of Amsterdam and Rotterdam in the Netherlands.
