About the De Gerstekorrel neighborhood
Amsterdam's (in)famous Red Light District is a short walk from Centraal Station and lies within the "Old Center," the oldest part of town. True, the area is home to hundreds of red windows for "women of the night", live sex shows and marijuana peddling coffee shops. But it's hardly a dangerous free-for all. There is a heavy police presence throughout the neighborhood and cameras on many corners.
As night falls, the narrow streets become increasingly crowded (and increasingly noisy) with happy-go-lucky tourists out for a fun night. Perhaps ironically, the Red Light District also boast some traditional attractions, such as the Oude Kerk (The Old Church), cool shops, and many affordable hotels.
