It will soon be illegal to smoke cannabis in Amsterdam’s red light district. The new regulations unveiled in the Dutch capital will come into effect from mid-May. It is hoped the measures will make living in the city more hospitable to residents who have long bemoaned tourists’ anti-social behaviour. As well as banning use of cannabis on the street – a popular attraction for tourists visiting the city – sex workers will need to close their venues by 3am. According to local media, almost all councillors supported taking action to combat the disruption caused by visitors.

U.S. cities that blazed the marijuana legalization trail now have a high concentration of 420-friendly vacation rentals, a new study by Upgraded Points shows. Why it matters: Cannabis-cations are one piece of the growing multi-billion dollar weed economy. The big picture: Unsurprisingly, three Colorado cities — Boulder, Denver and Colorado Springs — are among those with the highest concentration of pot-friendly rentals per the study.

As marijuana users get ready to honor the unofficial April 20 celebration of all things weed, many travelers are still unclear about where medical and recreational use of the controlled substance is permitted. From a federal level, cannabis is classified as a Schedule I substance under the Controlled Substances Act, which claims marijuana has a high potential for dependency and no accepted medical use, making distribution a federal offense.
