  • You will find the Sex Museum and bar & gift shops on this street. Only for tourists. I still remember one night when one tram step over a bicycle, and the ambulance was picking up the rider on the ground!

     last year i was in amsterdam, i'd like also the nice coffeeshops, you must go to the coffeeshop neer by 'de dam'. the name of the sop is El Guapo www.coffeeshop-elguapo.com
    mamcc5 Wed Aug 8, 2007 08:59 UTC
     The Grasshopper is terrible - overpriced and touristy. Go to the Grey Area, Tweede Kamer, Abraxas or Dampkring.

     My favorite coffee shop in Amsterdam is also The Grasshopper! It's very cool!
