Is Amsterdam the most overrated city in Europe? It seems like it's a city based around drugs and hookers (shit) with a few good museums.
Are you retarded, a city based around 100% legal drugs and hookers makes it fucking god-tier.

I fucking miss Amsterdam. I don't think there's much to it as a tourist, but it's a really comfy place to live in. The cycling, the logistics, the relaxed people.

If you want pot, go to Denver, it's better and cheaper.
If you want prostitutes go to Pattaya, they're better and cheaper.
Amsterdam is overrated if you value any of those things, but then I don't care for weak weed or old women who spank you when they should be sucking you off.

The hookers are mostly scammers and the 420 stoner bro attitude most people have when they go to Amsterdam is rather annoying.

or San Francisco, basically the US capital of weed and a lot more fun than Denver
>>1258338
Old women? What?
I was there in September, and the women were young and hot. I didn't indulge, though, because I know what a scam/rip-off they are.

The hookers are borderline criminals. Will take every penny out of your wallet and there's nothing you can do about it. At least from my experience.
Where in Europe is better for prostitution? Amsterdam was shit.

Belgium is better and Germany is the best.
>>1258392
Is it legal in Belgium?
>>1258393
Yes, Google is your friend. :^)
I know there are red light districts in Ghent, Brussels, Antwerp. There is probably one in Bruges and in other cities as well.
I would assume it's hard to beat Berlin considering they have flat-rate, fuck all you want brothels there...in a few places you pay 60 - 100 euros and you can drink and fuck all you want.

Prague might be #2 after Germany.

you can hit up Vancouver.
buddy said the hookers there are better then spains.
plus weed is easy to get and tolerated and better nature.
Vancouver is amsterdam 2.0
only thing they got is kickboxing, but canda and usa is looking to close that gap
>>1258338
lol hookers are cheap there...thats it but they are 6s at best plus stds and ladyboys arent easily controlled.
germany is better 100euros is all you can fuck an eat till sunrise

I made a road trip through the Netherlands and enjoyed Gauda (there was luckily a city festival) and Rotterdam more also Scheveningen was intresting.

I would assume based on my experience of german government and society that theyre super strict in keeping out diseases, underage girls, scammers, etc
would I be right?
I get paranoid about shit like that, its just my brain.

I've always enjoyed the place, personally. I find the setting physically attractive, there seem to be a good variety of artsy low-key things to do, and I find it a good walking or biking city. Markets, cafes, places to get a streetside or canalside drink, all worth doing for me. And I have no interest in either hookers or drugs.
I don't really believe in the idea of s******* all over a city as overrated, but just wanted to say that I dig it totally independently of its vices.

Yes, if it's a verified brothel then they will run by the book except for maybe tax fraud.
>>1258493
>those all-you-can-fuck brothels
ugly whores, shitton of them
>>1259698
>Whores in a brothel
Colour me surprised

A good friend of mine works in the monitoring of the sex industry, and he points out that there is also a lot of immigration violation in Dutch brothels. Not scary stuff like slavery, very often , but a lot of false working papers for girls, mostly from parts East who are not yet EU citizens.
Dutch here.
The red part of the city is drunk/stoned tourists.
Yellow parts are still touristy but way less crowded.
Green are my recommendations.
>>1258132
The city is far from focused on drugs and hookers,thats just for tourists. There is plenty to do.
>>1258168
Awful choice mate.
>>1260003
Which part is focused on cheese and flowers?
>>1260031
Tourist shops
>>1258141
Pleb opinion
>>1260003
>The red part of the city
>basically the entire fucking old town
If you're a native amsterdamer, I have sympathy for you
Sao Paulo, Brazil has the best hookers.
Black Rock City, NV has the best drugs.

To be fair, there's more and more discussion within the Netherlands that the current tourist situation in Amsterdam is untenable, exactly because it risks becoming Venice 2.0.
