As you enter the red light district one, you come across a tiny bar with a couple of friendly bartenders. There're stairs to go down and once you do, there're comfortable couches downstairs with a counter with a guy selling a shitload of different kinds of weed! If you don't wanna roll one yourself, you can buy pre-rolled joints as well!
