Expectations-Reality
Amsterdam’s Red Light District
Amsterdam, Netherlands
Oh, De Wallen, the spirit of Amsterdam. The saturnalian atmosphere of debauchery and seduction. Countless adult shops and alluring red lamps with girls in every window.
When it’s not empty because of lockdowns and restrictions,
it’s crowded, and it’s crowded as hell. What else would you expect from the world-famous tourist attraction?
It’s dirty. The street sweepers usually show up by morning, and in the night - while the crowd walks from one room and show to another - the fast food packages, bottles and other kinds of litter pile on the pavement.
Intimacy? Oh no. Try to maintain the mood entering the brothel in front of dozens of people! Girls all have their own rooms, but get ready to pay a lot for the location, if you dare to get in.
Anyway, in February the government decided to relocate the Red Light District…ness of the Red Light District away from the city center.
