Arnhem world's most Bitcoin friendly  city located in Netherlands, you can buy everything with bitcoin in it.

Arnhem Bitcoinstad" ('Bitcoin City') as they call it, came into existence when three Bitcoin enthusiasts decided they wanted to be able to spend bitcoins in their own town. They went on a mission to convince local bars and restaurant owners to accept bitcoin payments. At the opening at May 28th 2014, 15 places accepted bitcoins. Since then, more and more shop owners joined them so you can buy a greater diversity of products and pay with Bitcoin in Arnhem.

What we will have next, Bitcoin Country?
What other Bitcoin friendly places you would recommend?
I have so much respect for European countries when it comes to technology. They always seem to do the right things. Bitcoin now is a great example of that, if you go to pretty much anywhere else in the world, there will probably only be 1 or 2 stores that actually accept Bitcoin. This also makes the problem about how people might get too attached to Bitcoin and when they visit other countries, they find it hard to fit into a community that only uses fiat to buy things. Hopefully more and more cities and countries start doing this. It takes a lot of initiative to do it though, which means that it will probably take a long time for anything to happen.
