Think of Amsterdam and you will probably think of 2 things. Drugs and the Red Light District. Well I'd tried the drugs which I can certainly recommend so I thought I would take a look at the Red Light District. The small alley ways and streets on the canals will certainly open your eyes. Wandering into a sex shop was an experience in itself. I am very open minded but some of the things on sale, such as the 'Super Butt Plug' even shocked me. I decided it was time to see what else was on sale. Strolling past the windows I saw many beautiful women. Somehow I staggered upon an area where there were some fat ugly women- I must've reached bargain basement! I quickly turned round! The prostitutes are very friendly and will chat to you first. I spoke to a few to get an idea of prices. I was told '50 guilders for a suck and 100 guilders for a suck and a f*ck'! This seemed to be the general price although I was offered 50 guilders for 'what ever you want baby'! You can guess what she looked like. 50 guilders is about £15. I couldn't resist temptation and went for a 50 guilder session. Very hygenic, she even insisted on using a condom for a blow job! and was very friendly. I can certainly recommend exploring the Red Lights Of Amsterdam!
Red light districts, and the one in Amsterdam is probably the most famous in Europe, have always been a world full of mistery.
The Netherlands' sensible social outlook extends to prostitution, which is ostensibly well-regulated. Amsterdam's red-light area is, as I wrote earlier, definitively the most (in)famous, but all the cities have their own crawls. Prostitutes display themselves in windowed booths, and when there is custom, the curtain is drawn ... ...happy hooker, however, there's an unhappy one, perhaps a young Eastern European without the right papers, sucked into a vicious circle of high hopes, drug addiction and extortion.
The saddest thing, in fact, is the fact that the red light district is also the centre of drug traffickers activity. ...

Advantages: Much for the family to see and do Disadvantages: Certain areas should not be seen by children
chain-stores.
However, if you visit as a family, make sure you know which parts of the city are Family oriented. It is very easy to walk into the RedLightDistrict (perhaps the capital of the Sex World - and also legal in the netherlands) and young eyes will definately see things they should not. There are also area where drugs are traded freely, as Amsterdam has some very liberal drug laws.
Stick to the designated tourist areas, or go around with a tour guide and you will enjoy this cosmopolitan city. If you can, find a cheese shop and buy some fresh Edam, or buy some of the wooden clogs that the Netherlands is famous for.
The city itself is very beautiful, combining 17th-18th century architecture with a mix of modern buildings. New and old mix very well as you will see many automobiles, but also hundreds of bikes wherever you go. ...
Advantages: Beautiful scenery and art! Disadvantages: Trams, bikes and taxis!
Ah Amsterdam, the city that appears to house thousands of insomniac residents, or maybe it?s all the noise at night keeping them awake.
I went to Amsterdam in 2000 on my honeymoon (so don?t expect graphic amounts of detail on the Redlightdistrict!) I went not fully expecting what I found there. From most people?s perspective Holland is a country fully of clog wearing, pot smoking, tulip loving and sex and windmill mad, arrogant Dutch-folk! And although part of this is true, I?ll explain why later, Amsterdam is very well cultured and beautiful, if not however a little on the grubby side! And there are miles of canals, I don?t know how many there are, but there are lots of the damn things! If anyone does know please tell me and I?ll include it!
There are brochures advertising ?see Amsterdam in a day?, this would be an impossibility ...
