We are now going to finish our tour at yet another square in Amsterdam - Nieuwmarkt - the new market. This square is not in de Wallen, but in Chinatown, so you can see a lot of oriental restaurants in here.

At the very end of our tour we offer you to watch a short trailer of a documentary about two most famous prostitutes of Red Light District 70-year-old twin sisters Louise and Martine Fokkens. They tell their life stories and also comment on the current situation in Red Light District. They are truly honest and humorous ladies, we hope you will enjoy this video.

Now you have visited de Wallen and seen what it has to offer. De Wallen does not restrain itself to being just the prostitution centre, but it surely is the most vivid and attractive place for visitors.

This is a special area of Red Light District. Streets to your right are called Bloedstraat, Monnikenstraat, - The Blood of Christ Street and Monk's Street. In Medieval times most of Amsterdam monasteries (that was over 30) were located in what's now Red Light District. So the names of the streets preserved from the old times, even though the surroundings have changed.

One of the small streets that is parallel to the canal couple years ago was referred to as Blue Jeans Alley. The story behind it is rather curious. So once there was a girl working here who, tired of the standard bikini or lingerie, decided to go for blue jean shorts. The girl become very popular, and in no time half of the ladies on these streets were wearing the same kind of outfit. Here is a little bit of successful marketing in the world of prostitution.

In these streets a lot of Asian girls work ,but also corner of Oudezijds Acherburgwal and Bloedstraat is considered transsexual corner.

On the left hand side of the canal you can see one of Amsterdam Sex Theatres and indisputably the most famous one - Casa Rosso. You could also cross the bridge and come closer to see the program of the night and the posters. Watch out for little pink elephants on the sides on canopy - they might pee on you!
Sex Theatre does not provide the guests with prostitution services, instead there are actors performing on stage. Basically, acting comes down to people having sex on stage, guests are always asked to participate to the extend they are comfortable with.
Sex theatres and prostitutes supplement each other very well - those who do not dare to visit prostitutes, go to the theatre; and those who get excited at the theatre - go to prostitutes.
Please do a quiz in our menu to find out more about Casa Rosso.
