De Wallen, the old town of Amsterdam in the Netherlands, is home to the world-famous “Red Light District”. In the neon windows on both sides of the canal, sex workers wait for customers to come to them. However, Mayor Femke Halsema plans to move the red-light district away from the city center and set up new erotic centers in the southern suburbs, boasting better entertainment facilities and giving sex workers more space.

According to reports from Agence France-Presse and the British Daily Star, the Dewaren area, where the red light district is located, is located in the city center, but ordinary people also live here. For a long time, local people have complained that not only are the noises so noisy that they cannot sleep at night, but they may also encounter drunks or idiots on the roadside at any time, which makes local people unbearable. Therefore, the current mayor Hassema plans to remove the red light district from the De Wallen area, so that Amsterdam can get rid of its image as a “sin city” and at the same time reduce the number of tourists and misdemeanors in the area.

The city government has also vowed to provide 100 rooms for sex workers in the new erotic center, as well as restaurants, theaters and bars, to build the center into a “safe, high-quality” erotic center. center.

In addition, the Amsterdam city government also mentioned in a statement that “this option will be submitted to the city council early next year” and it is expected that the new erotic center will be completed within seven years. However, this plan also triggered a backlash from some people, especially those living near Europa Avenue, who expressed uneasy feelings. On the other hand, Mariska Majoor, a 54-year-old retired sex worker and now the head of a sex work consultation center, said that regarding the relocation of the red light district, many sex workers feel that they feel like they are being “Hide”.
