Keep red light district, says trade chamber

Amsterdam’s red light district is one of the city’s biggest tourist draws and must retain its erotic character, according to a report by the capital’s chamber of trade.


The report says 26% of tourists visit the red light district and the establishment of an erotic nightclub with international allure would boost its popularity still further.
The city council is in the middle of a major clean up operation in the area and has shut down a number of brothels and sex clubs.
