The fun capital of the world: Amsterdam, has always been a front runner for tourists in terms of backpacking, luxury travel or even for abroad studies. People from 176 different nations reside in Amsterdam let alone the tourists, making it the International hub of the world.

Having this many multitudes in terms of residents brings in other factors to the picture as well. Amsterdam has been the weed capital of the world in yesteryear and being one of the most liberal countries, the Dutch has also legalized prostitution, in order to nullify human trafficking and bringing in strict law and order to the business.

My time in the De Wallen’s district (popularly known as the Red light district) had an impactful and unique experience in my overall globetrotting ventures. The district starts with a massive condom shop where one can purchase condoms and sex toys of any form adding to that the surrounding petty shops which sells you souvenirs of this district. The observation windows of various brothels of almost all categories would give someone interested choices in case he/ she are looking for pleasure.
Your to-do list won’t be complete without undergoing the Ultimate Pub Crawl which runs every night from the city centre. These pubs have interesting games along with the alcohol such as Partner in crime or The Dentist’s Chair.

Amsterdam can be ideally visited in 6-7days and Netherlands being a reasonably sized nation other cities such as Rotterdam and Den Hague is also accessible on day trips.
