what i dont get is when people visit amsterdam just for the weed. amsterdam is a beautiful city, with many attractions and such. people who go and sit in coffeeshops all day are wasting their damn cash.

easy

1) Amsterdam is common percieved to BE the Netherlands (those will lack of real geography)

2) Everyone assosiates Amsterdam with weed so every tourist assosiates that with going and smoking a joint

Here`s the issue, 1) the Joints shit, 2) it costs too much, 3) It is ALWAYS crowded (make no doubt) so being comftable or such is most times not an option

Yes Amsterdam is beautiful city correct..Now if you could just move to see it...

There's other legal places near amsterdam that are much cheaper and less tourists.

sickkid90 -yes lol its the same age to smoke it too
and
Yes your ok upto a point of carrying an amount of weed and being stopped, Everywhere will say 20g+ is bad but at the end of the day the police here are like everywhere else they can either be the biggest dicks in the world or occasionally you`ll get the all right one who slaps u on the hand and off u go

scarf - you can smoke anywhere outdoors you wish unless its private ground then its upto the rules of that place (for eg a roller coaster park would say no to smoking anywhree IN the park, walk outside the gates onto a public road and your fine)

SpRi7e - yes there`s plenty of places near amsterdam to goto, there`s the tram you can use to venture out to the outskirts of the inner city, Using the tram is quick and easy and cheaper than anything else available.

Hey I just had a thought.. its illegal to BUY the weed in Netherlands if your under 18, but is it also Illegal to consume it? Like in some European countries that consumption age is different than the buying age! So if I got sum weed on me will i get smacked?

amsterdam is plainly the shit, prices are not too high. 6 euros for a quality gram. But the prices vary.. the higher the price the higher you'll get. and believe me, they do provide strong shit. All the shit about tourism-weed and it being crap is bullshit. Buy a couple grams of white sharkweed at the greenhouse and you'll have a hell of a trip while cruising through amsterdam. Warmoe straat and such (red light district) is allways fun to chill, supplies few nice places too to drink or toke. And I suggest visiting Rembrandtsplein and check out the nightlife more. anyway have fun and get wasted!

lot of shops with crappy too expensive weed indeed,

although there are a whole lot of "local" shops a few miles away from center, with supreme cannabis quality
