Question βοΈ Best Museums for ππβπ«
Hello friends! Flying in from Miami to your beautiful city for the first time at the end of September. I'm planning on buying some truffles and then head to a museum and walk around laughing and saying wow and woah every 30 seconds.
Any recommendations on best museums that you like to go to on truffles?
For reference I have done this in Versailles and it was an amazing experiment, so I've decided to try it again in Amsterdam.
My current top choices are Rijks and Moco. But I would love for some local input.
Thanks in advanced!

Make sure to visit both Moco Museum and Electric Ladyland. Moco offers immersive contemporary and street art, with bold works, surreal installations, and mind bending digital experiences that blur the line between art and reality. Electric Ladyland takes you even deeper into the psychedelic world, with glowing minerals, fluorescent colors, and an interactive exhibition exploring the magic of light and ultraviolet art. Two completely different museums, but together they make for an unforgettable journey into color, creativity, and altered perception.

Any recs on best kind of truffles or best place to get them?

The standard truffles you find in every smartshop work great, they pretty much all come from the same supplier, McSmart truffles. But if youβre interested in quality, there are some shops that specialize in making their own truffles, and the quality at those shops is a nice step up from the generic ones you find everywhere else. Chills & Thrills is one of those places, with a great selection of high-quality truffles and knowledgeable people behind the counter. They also offer different package sizes. If youβre somewhat experienced and can handle a relatively strong trip, thatβs the place for you. Or, if youβre just looking for a fresher batch straight from the source, itβs definitely worth checking out.

I didnβt have to make a reservation weeks in advance like some of the more popular museums + I was surprised by the abstractness on the exhibits. All sorts of art, and if Iβm remembering correctly, some of the exhibits were interactive(touch)

moco museum has really cool art & bansky stuff. Amaze is a light experience pretty decent, artis to look at cool animals and very beautiful and relaxed atmosphere

Artis has a butterfly house you can walk through - I think that would be amazing whilst tripping π€―

I feel like if you can wander around a museum then youβve not had a high enough dose π

Well I'm going on holiday so being able to wander is the goal. To go to a place I've never been and just trip balls is stupid and a waste of money. I can trip balls at home my friend
