The land where Sex and Drug are legal, Amsterdam, Netherlands

Amsterdam is the largest city and the capital of the Netherlands. It is also the only country in the world where drugs (cannabis ) and sex career are legal.
The only really good thing about Amsterdam is that you rarely see people driving in the city! Everyone loves their bikes and they go working,
dating, outing on their bikes!

Buildings in Amsterdam are hilarious. Look at the picture on the top and you'll know what I mean. Almost all of the buildings in the city look like these ones. That's due to the soft ground where the buildings stand and also the result of the many(> 100) canals dug in the middle of the city which cause them to be imbalance.
The other attractions of Amsterdam are the many museums (Rijksmuseum, the Van Gogh museum etc) all within walking distance.
Dam Square in the centre of the city is also one of the attractions. The National monument is sitting right in the middle of the square. It's to pay tribute to the the soldiers who were killed in WWII. Madamme Tussad and the Royal Palace are there too.
The monument of remembrance in the middle of Dam Square.
Well, I supposed everyone knows where this place is. Yes, it is the most famous one in the city! Almost all movies made in Amsterdam are made here.Beautiful ,beautiful place. The buildings here are coffee shops ( selling cannabis ) , bars ( many American Bull Dogs). At the back of these buildings is the Red Light District. Sexy sexy...
Can you see all the red curtains being drawn? The sex workers sleep during the day and most only operate at night. We are not allowed to take pictures of them and they have their own personal security guards.

Reguliersgracht = Regular scratch?

The last place I went was a boat ride. It was a good ride and we got to see many places where you won't be able to see on foot. Not too expensive. It also brought us to see the smallest house in the world. You should too see
it.
