Lights to be dimmed for prostitutes, early June, 2005.
The Belgian city of Antwerp is to dim its new waterfront lights after complaints from prostitutes.
Sex workers complained the bright lights were putting off potential clients, reports Independent Online.
"We had some remarks from the prostitutes that there was too much light, both for them and the clients," city council spokesperson Jorn Verbeeck said.
"We are investigating the possibility of lowering the light there."
Prostitutes complained to city and police officials that the lights did not give them enough privacy and hurt business, he said.
The port, which tolerates sex workers in a select few streets near the waterfront, is to test an electric system to dim the lights.

Huge redevelopment of the RLD underway, seems to be getting back some semblance of life. Some nice looking girls, located in a much more restricted area than of old: most of the black girls have gone, and all the windows are now located in two streets. A huge new building "Villa Tinto - Pleasure Palace" is being developed, its supposed to open on 5th Jan 2005. Looks to have a load more windows. There is a web site www.villa-tinto.com but not much there at present. (Review # 10473)

Hi,
Like the great lists here :-) and always like the input from locals, so I'll add my thing:
Just recently strolled once again through the Antwerp RLD. And though indeed much more limited (3 streets) as it used to be, at least the area was lively again.
Almost all windows seemed to be in use, but not all the girls were present (thursday early evening). Quite a lot of really good looking girls and actually almost none that don't look good.
Currently they are even building and renovating several houses in the streets, so the revival is defenitely starting.
Fun note: a friend of mine, working for a construction firm saw the plans of one of the new houses, there are full concrete beds.... certainly will last any action :-)
Practical notes: (I always like these in other posts):
HOW TO GET THERE:
ask the taxi driver to take you to the RLD, no shame. Or ask for the Schipperstraat or the Falconplein.
You could go walking from the city centre, I would guess it's about 15 minutes from the cathedral.
The area is car-free but you can easily park on the river bank, some areas are free some are paying.
SAFETY:
IT's generally safe there, but you might want to be aware for pickpockets (and for a rip-off by the ladies, though that's very unlikely, and even then I think you don't have to worry stealing very much but maybe more some extra pay for extra service)
the neighbourhoud is very frequently patrolled by the police (I would say about every 10 mins), they go in the car-free area with police cars, or might just walk around there.
Late at night it might get a bit less an area you want to go (after 1 am).
PRICES:
€25 for suck, €50 for suck and fuck done as quickly as possible, more time more action more money
When going for the lowest price, negociate clothing and actions, prices are more or less fixed.
No drinks or things, you just pay for the girls service.
REMARKABLE:
one of Antwerps best dance-clubs is located right in the RLD, the Cafe d'Anvers. It's just a regular discotheque, with really good music and a very fun atmosphere. No paid sex there.
So you might find a lot of young people walking in the street, girls and boys, they are clients of the dance-club.
LAWS BEHAVIOURS AND THINGS:
prostitution is more or less legal: the prostitute works legally and pays taxes, only pimps are illegal.
In the RLD all available girls are behind the windows, the ones walking in the street are very likely to be just girls, don't make mistakes :-)
Between police patrols (though that recently has become nearly impossible) you might find people playing ball-ball: a ball is hidden under one of three cups, bets are made and money is only paid to the propper, you're being ripped off.
AREA:
The RLD currently has the shape of an U, and girls are spread without any zones or categories.
The dance-club mentioned above is in the right branch of the U.
There are some night shops in the neighbourhoud where you can buy drinks, cigarettes, ...
There are public toilets, you actually stand doing your thing in the middle of the street, looking in the street, covered by a metal cilindryc artwork.
SEX SHOPS:
Around the RLD you can find some sex-shops:
-One on the big lane with the trees (go left from the left branch of the U) small video/dvd selection, some magazines, some toys. Video cabins and cinema.
-One in the center of the RLD (the bottom of the U), automatic cabins with limited selection, magazines, toys, peep-show.
-One just next to square (in the bottom of the U, continue, cross the square and go in the left street, then it's on your right hand side: U__+O=, U=RLD, __=street, +=crossroads, O=square, ==two streets, the tram also passes the square, good luck :-)
here you'll find a big collections of videos/dvd and magazines, one(!) video cabin, and nice assortiment of toys, even some clothes. Usually very friendly staff.
MORE SEXSHOPS:
Around the central station there are 3 more worth a visit and some I don't know about.
Price to see a video/dvd in a cabin: €8-€10
Pay attention when buying videos: they are almost all in the European PAL format, so make sure you can play them. Most shops also rent the videos/dvds, but you most likely will need a Belgian identity card for it.
-Facing the Astrid Park Plaza hotel, in the road just right of it, you'll find on your right side an video/dvd shop: large collection, video cabins (choose from complete collection), friendly staff
-Further in the street on the left (in the parking garage): large video/dvd collection, video cabins (choose from complete collection some toys and clothes.
-Facing the Astrid Park Plaza hotel take the street to the left (not just next to the hotel but go in the big street), on the right side there is shop with a video/dvd collection, magazines, toys and some clothes, video cabins (choose from complete collection, except some).
-There are some more shops in the streets left from the Astrid square (again facing the Astr. P. Plaza hotel) but they are usually not worth visiting
OTHER SHOPS:
Check out the Kammenstraat (10am - 6pm) for modern clothing and a really exquisite fetish shop: Roxy.
In a side-street you can find the 'Erotische Verbeelding' a shop with respect for both women and men. Both at Roxy and at Erotische Verbeelding only quality stuff!
Done typing now... and while you're over here, don't forget to try a good Belgian beer (and no, Heineken is absolutely not Belgian, and I won't go into a quality debate here, everyone has a right to their own taste, but I got my opinion :-) (Review # 8241)

The present situation in Antwerp (street windows) is much less interesting than it was half a year ago. Due to new politics of the local government. The many window streets have now been reduced to just 3 streets. All young girls (most foreign and illegal immigrants from eastern europe) have gone. What is left is windows with old women behind them (former hookers who own the house) Much better at the moment is Brussels (50 km distance from Antwerp) (Review # 6176)

Sad news guys....; RLD almost abandoned...crack-downs on foreigners and that kind of rubbish. Only saw a couple of girls in the area, no more than say 10....all less than appealing, mostly nasty TV or black & old girls. Too bad, the place used to be great. (Review # 5163)

Have been in Antwerp end of February 2002. The famous RLD is almost dead. Just a few chicks there. And even quality is very low. What happened? Any restrictions of the city? Antwerp used to be very open-minded regarding the RLD. (Review # 5078)

Hi all, here is a good lead for the Antwerp area: As the red light window area has been well documented i will keep to some private houses. As my own particular fantasy is soft-bondage i will list places discovered upon my travels in quest of damsels to PUT into distress...
Mission, Rosier 6, Antwerp centre. tel 03 226 7056. Very nice house in a quiet street, very clean and friendly staff. I met with Kitty who is late 30's early 40 but well kept and a good shape - very nice legs and breasts. There are usually 2-3 other girls, but only 2 were into being tied up. All good looking chicks, varying ages, but Kitty is the oldest (and the 'Madame' of the house). 1 hour was 6000 (4 months ago) but she doesn't really watch the clock. We had a fantastic romp and she was willing to try anything i suggested and various tie ups.~~I practice a "soft" bondage and no whips and stuff. But I know she will go further, because they have the stuff for it. Call for hours.
S Empire, K. Oomsstraat12, tel 03 237 0685. This place is a bit less classy, but still OK for cleanliness and 2 friendly girls. Nikki is a bit plump, but looked OK dressed up in a tight leather outfit with bulges in the right places. Her dominant girl-friend is a real knock-out if you want a girl to dominate you, this is the place.
Nikki goes quite a bit further than I actually wanted (imagine that happening !!) so it was an education to say the least. A little pricey - 8000 for 1 hour, but these girls don't haggle. Good if you want extreme, but otherwise go to Mission.
More updates soon, I am going to try one who advertises you can make a 'home movie' with the girl. I'll report this in mid-march. Good hunting ! TJ~~ (Review # 3110)

Antwerp fuckin' rocks!! I have been there a few times recently (late 2000 & early 2001) and I've been impressed all times. Ask in any bar in the town centre for directions to the RLD if you can't be bothered with maps etc, most people are relaxed about it, as in Amsterdam.
The girls vary in quality, but you can get some really good deals if you shop around. Don't be afraid to haggle with the bitches, and if they're asking for too much, move on to the next one.
I have had some great times; S & F for 1000BF only (about UK£16!!), although some want usually no more than 2000BF, still great value for money! Some of the girls are quite good looking, but don't go for the ones that star out of the window and look like they're on crack. Go for the ones with a look in their eye, and some even wank their pussy at you behind the window. These are the ones to go for if you can find them, and I guarantee, they will fuck you good (although some are lazy and make you do all the hard work). They are pretty friendly too, most don't mind you sucking tits and wanking their pussies, and some don't rush.
I've mostly been on Sunday's, it's pretty quiet, but not all the windows are occupied. As well as this, you can get wankered on some good beers too!! If you can do a day trip to Antwerp from the UK (doesn't take that long if you get up early), I would highly recommend it. ROCKIN!! (Review # 3105)

In Antwerp the Red Light district is located near the center in the area around Falcon Plein. There are two main streets Verversrui and Schippersstraat. I like Antwerp because there are some girls which are really good looking and classy, not all of them but there are at least 10 which are really worth checking. You have to check the place both day and night (the night shift starts at 8), when you get there walk around and wait before choosing because the nicest girls are often busy, you can see if a girl is busy if there is a light on inside the window. In Verversrui check house number 9 during the day (ask for Samantha) and number 12 at night for some really exciting blondes. In Schipperstraat there is a square on the left maybe you will find a dark skin girl with an amazing body, her name is Lenny, pay her a visit and you will not regret it.
In general you will find better girls during the day also the place is more relaxed, late at night it could turn a little dangerous, but nothing really to worry about. Prices run from Bef 2000 for 15 minutes to Bef 8000 ($200) for an hour, girls normally do not go really wild, it depends mostly from you and the money you want to spend. Most of the girls will do trios but most of them are not lesbian or bisex. Ask them before, some girls really like each other and they could give you an exciting show and let you participate to their fun. To my experience the best girls come from Holland they normally speak good English which helps any international traveller. (Review # 1673)

I have been a few times to Antwerpen and each time I pay a visit to its RLD, which is not as big as Amsterdam's, but still worth visiting. The girls operate from windows on the street, so take you time and walk around: the best girls are often busy and you may miss them on your first round. As you approach the RDL from the centre (the Grosse Markt Platz) there is a first street in which you will see mostly black or Asian girls, some of them quite nice, most in my opinion, average or below. They will tap on the glass to attract you attention, shout and some will even jump out of their window and try to pull you in. In general, they will quote you a very low price (500 BEF = approx. 15 USD) and they will let you understand that you can lick their pussy (not that I would recommend that!) or even have anal sex with them, then, as soon as you are in, they will start asking you for more money to start anything. If you like one of them, agree on what you want and the price you want to pay before you go in, and let them understand that you will not pay more than agreed.
If you continue on the same street after the first intersection, you will get to an area where there is a mix of white (mostly Eastern European) and black girls. Prices here are double than in the "black and Asian" street: about 1000 BEF (30 UDS) for F or S, 2000 for F and S, about 4000 for 1/2 hour, 6-8000 for an hour. Quality of girls is generally better, with some 10's and improves as you go ahead, up to about 3/4 of the street, then there is some decrease in quality. The street ends in a square with regular shops, turn right and then right on the next street again and you are back in the RDL. In this street, quality is usually high also. Last time I was here, I found an incredible blond girl from Amsterdam (she comes to work here every weekday, noon to 9 p.m.), about 6", huge breasts (silicon) and beautiful face and body. She asked 2000 for F&S (the fare is the same for the model-types and the dogs, you just have to be lucky -or know how to judge- because you can get a top-treatment from a goddess and a lousy job from a dog, and pay exactly the same!) but half-way through the session I decided to "upgrade" to a half hour for 4000 BEF. I got wonderful sex action: a very nice blowjob and changed a few positions (all with condom), a little back massage and a titfuck with baby oil (w/o condom) between the first time and the second and after we talked for a while (at this point I was completely drenched in sweat, but before leaving she dried my body with paper towels - the cubicles in which they operate don't usually have showers). All in all, I stayed for almost an hour, without her hurrying me or asking for more money. After that time, I am a regular of hers!
Also, on the other street I once found a nice brunette from Albania (possibly named Mariella) with a good titjob that asked for 2000 BEF for 1/2 hour F&S (it was a slow time of day). Again, I had a very nice, unhurried time (about 45 minutes) with some real kissing (with toungue); she told me that she was there every day, but have not seen her in a subsequent visit. Two windows up I found this incredible tanned blond with huge, rock-hard melons (they were REALLY huge), she was about 5.4", with a very pretty face (she told me her name was Andrea). Since I had already had Mariella I just wanted to try her for a bj only (1000 BEF), she started sucking me very skillfully while I massaged her knockers, but after about 10 minutes she became a little impatient and wanted me to finish, so I told her to do it with her hand while I was sucking on her nipples and fondling her shaved pussy. Next time I will try her for a longer session.
In a previous visit 6 months ago, I had a Brazilian girl (beautiful tanned body and VERY good, she did incredible things with her vaginal muscles while riding me) and this girl from Croatia with long black hair, tight muscular body and huge, rock-hard tits. This was possible one of the 10 best girls I ever had, she sucked me w/o condom and fucked me (with) in several positions like she was really enjoying it, all for about an hour. In all the subsequent visits I kept looking for her, but could not find her any more.
In all this time, I only had two bad experiences in Antwerpen: one with a Slovenian girl (blond, very beautiful, model-type, but cold as a frozen piece of cod), I even gave up cumming and left, and one with a mulatto girl (well, she gave me good sex, can't complain, but I was not careful beforehand, so she hit me with an extra 2000 BEF for her time after I carelessly agreed to going in with her without negotiating first).
Well, if you go to Antwerpen, take this advice: shop around, choose well (the girls who smile will give you the best service) and .... have fun. (I'm there in about 2 weeks). By the way, if you avoid the rush hours (5-7 pm and after 10 pm) you'll get better attention and services from those beauties! (Review # 1521)

I was in Antwerp in mid-December '99; based on earlier review I began to explore the city; the red zone is also known as the Sailors' Quarter consisting of about 5 city blocks in the southwest corner of the city. It is a wild place and a lot of fun. I have never been to Amsterdam, but imagine the scenes to be very similar. From sundown until dawn, there are at least 60 girls showing their wares through windows, nearly all lit with subdued red light. There are all types, older, blacks, blondes (a lot of real blondes), busty, slender, ample; just don't grab the first one who comes on to you--that is the only drawback, many are extremely aggressive saying they will fuck for about 500 Belgian francs (about 20 bucks), but will really expect about 3000-6000 bf (about 100-200 bucks). There are also many adult book/video stores with video and live peepshows--these are really expensive to me (100 bf per 5 minutes, approximately). First night was with black girl with unbelievable body (about 5'5", DDs, tiny waist and really cute butt and face), cost 5000 bf for an unhurried hour in back room. Great bbbj, responsive to my clit licking, and great fuck. Next night was really busty (E's) with beautiful face, only 3000 bf. Take your time and have a great time. (Review # 1452)
