Christiania
Could not miss this tourist destination hailed as one of oldest European communities. The fact that I lived in A'dam for few years have not immunized me from the shock upon seening bricks of hash being openly sold on Christiania's "main square". Seems that the main activity in the community is selling weed and hash.
While Christiania is hailed as cultural power house of the city - have not seen much of culture. Unless large bricks of hash count as conceptual art.
One cannot take photos. Locals are (over)sensitive with a camera in sight.
What surprised me is that a community which openly denounces materialism has a souvenir shop. With quite expensive T-shirts in it. The shop accepts any credit card.
Quite a step for a commune.
