Amsterdam: Where the Cannabis Industry Was Built

A free, self-guided GPS audio walk through the side of Amsterdam's cannabis story the coffeeshops don't tell: the growshops, breeders and back offices that built the industry behind the smoke. 6 stops across three districts — De Pijp, a ferry crossing to Amsterdam-Noord, and Oost — from Europe's first growshop to the union that negotiated the coffeeshop rulebook with the city. Companion walk to Amsterdam: The Cannabis City That Never Legalized. Walk it on location with GPS, or follow along from anywhere.
