Nos adentraremos en este barrio de calles estrechas y luces rojas, donde las prostitutas son las protagonistas de todas las miradas. El guía nos contará sin tapujos la cultura y regulación de la droga a través de los coffeshops y smartshops, además de hacer un repaso a la historia de la prostitución hasta nuestros días en la ciudad de Ámsterdam.
