Prostitution Information Center Amsterdam
Red Light District or as Amsterdammers call it - De Wallen (The Walls, because the old city walls ...demolished centuries ago to build the area stood here) surprises you with contrasts. Dutch people like contrasting human activities, diverse ways of life, and the architecture which serves them. Everything is human and as long as nobody is violated or forced to suffer, a lot is allowed.
 Around the Old Church
The big, old St. Nicholas Church called commonly The Old Church (De Oude Kerk) is central to the Red Light District. Almost in front of the church you will see the information point and a shop of the Prostitution Information Center – PIC.
But this is not an the only contrast shocking the visitor: to the left of the church you will find The Princess Juliana Basic School for small children aged 4 to 12, next to several windows with immigrant prostitutes standing there day and night, mainly from Africa and Asia. To the right you will have small alleys with more prostitutes in their windows; couple of cafes and directly at the church wall you may see a small, bronze Prostitute Monument.
Prostitution Information Center - PIC
Established in 1994 by a young and intelligent Mariska Majoor, who began to work as a prostitute at the age of 16, Prostitution Information Center played an important part in the change of the Dutch laws regarding prostitution. A charitable foundation located in the middle of the Red Light District took on itself a task of informing the public about social conditions of women working in the sex industry. PIC defends the rights of the prostitutes, fights for their respect, and tries to bring the change in their social situation by introduction of the new laws which would protect them.
De Wallenwinkel (The PIC Red Light District Store)
Prostitution Information Center runs a store, which also serves as its public information office. The shop is called De Wallenwinkel from the Dutch name of the whole area. You may find there books about prostitution, folders as well as information about the laws and some handy information about the prostitution in the Netherlands, even from the client point of view as well as guides and maps of the area. The store organizes lectures (illustrated with slides) about the subject and tours around the Red Light Quarter.

Special places not far from Amsterdam
During
spring and tulip season flower lovers can
take a coach trip to Keukenhof, huge gardens
exclusively dedicated to tulips.
Not
far from Amsterdam, in the former Zuiderzee (now
the IJsselmeer) is Marken.
An island now joined to the mainland by a
land bridge. It still has many wooden houses, and
you can still see people wearing local costume,
not just for tourists. You should at least visit
the harbor.
If you have extra time...consider expanding your horizons and exploring some other Dutch treasures
From a few hours to a few days see the possibilities...
