Red-Light Districts
A Red-Light District is an area in a city where commercial sex work is legally permitted and regulated. These districts often feature establishments such as brothels, strip clubs, and adult entertainment venues. The purpose of these areas is to provide a controlled environment for sex work, aiming to reduce crime and improve safety for both workers and clients.
In many countries, such as the Netherlands and Germany, red-light districts are well-known tourist attractions. They often have specific laws governing the operation of sex work, including health regulations and worker rights. This approach seeks to destigmatize sex work and promote the well-being of those involved.
