@viktor.phuket - you're right - it's not. It's quite annoying that people associate Amsterdam automatically to cannabis, marijuana and the red light district when the truth is New Zealand actually ranks 1st in cannabis use and Australia, The US and The UK beat the Netherish in cannabis use. The Netherlands is just 9th according to this http://www.1stmarijuanagrowerspage.com/marijuana-cannabis-today.html. Amsterdam isn't just all drugs - there's also that ingenuity of the Netherish or what is more known as the Dutch - to manage the water, great greens, tulips and flora , modernity , great arts and traces of pioneering modernization.
