Everyone has heard about Amsterdam's Red Light District, but not everyone knows that the city also has its own Chinatown. Complete with its own Buddist temple which is supposedly one of Europe's largest. It's basically a few streets that go from Nieuwmarkt up towards the Central Station of Amsterdam. Obiviously there's also  plenty of supermarkets, Chinese restaurants and all kind of great places to eat. Just look for the restaurants with ducks hanging in the window.

Restaurant Nam Kee is a great place to eat Chinese food! Looking for a good Thai restaurant in Amsterdam? Check out Bird!

"Black Corner" is situated near the old church and is easily recognizable as the ladies are all coloured. Some of them will open their door as you walk by and offer bargain deals...

These are the numerous individuals selling hard drugs on the black market. Most of them are harmless, but their goods can often be damaging. When walking in the Red Light District, these guys will approach you and ask if you want to purchase cocaine, ecstacy or other kinds of hard drugs.
