The red light district only occupies the Avenue by the two canals and the alleys and passages in the city for centuries --old heart.
The area has always attracted young tourists, mostly male, who come here for beer and half a glass of beer.
Legally sold weeds and sex.
Due to cheap flights, the number of tourists has surged in recent years, and even in the off-season, the streets are always crowded with tourists.
The popularity of young people in the region has caused a series of headaches for residents: public drunkenness, drug trafficking, noise pollution and businesses catering to tourists rather than locals.
On Tuesday, the city's new mayor, Femke Halsema, announced that the municipal council will implement temporary street closures on busy nights so cleaners can go in and clean up vomit and human waste.
Officials will also hang out on the street and distribute-the-
Fines for illegal acts such as littering and public urinating.
In addition, Parliament "hosts" will be deployed to guide people to quieter streets.
"The passage to the famous canal in the city is also closely monitored," the commission said . ".
The announcement comes a week after the city's ombudsman described the dam after dark as a "Urban Jungle" and police were unable to deal with crime, violence and drug trafficking.
While Amsterdam is the most dangerous city in the Netherlands, crime rates in the Netherlands have been steadily declining for several years.
However, there is no tourism industry.
Nearly 20 million tourists will travel to Amsterdam this year, up from 10 million in 2000.
These tourists need a place to live, locals complain that the growth of Airbnb rentals has further blocked the already tense real estate market in the city, as landlords can squeeze more money out of duplicate bears
More rental period than ordinary tenants.
Airbnb lettings also took visitors to residential areas, where locals complained about noise and anti-social behaviour on their doorsteps.

To this end, the city introduced temporary rental restrictions this year, reducing the number of days people can rent on the platform from 60 days to 30 days.
The city also forced Airbnb landlords to register and promised to strengthen inspections of rental properties.
For regular hotels, the city has been playing around with the idea of raising room taxes per night, and last year launched a public relations campaign to persuade visitors to visit areas outside the city center.
However, tourists still flock to the center, but the center they flock to is different from the illegal rear.
The city's alarmist Ombudsman described the disastrous jungle.
The cleanup of the red light district has been going on for more than a decade, and according to some locals, it has made the area worse.
The program, called "Project 1012" after the zip code of the District, focuses on cleaning up the image of the red light district and attracting visitors at a higher level.
The first thing to do is go to the iconic window where the prostitutes trade.
There are currently 300 windows in the area, down from 486 in 2006.

The term "landlord" is "pimps", either bought out by the city or threatened by the Human Trafficking Act.

Beekmeijer is the former captain of the Amsterdam police deputy team, which oversees the city's sex trade.
For Beekmeijer and many working girls, it is safer for prostitutes to work in the open air than to work underground.
"Every idiot knows that pushing things underground will only make it easier for criminals to get them," said Felicia Anna, a prostitute who works in the area.
On the black market, she explained, "Justice is in the hands of those with the most muscular.
I can tell you now that prostitutes are not the most muscular.

In Shoreditch or Williamsburg, the shops, quirky joints don't look right.
For Mariska Majoor, a former prostitute-born activist, the city's clean-up operation paid the price: losing part of its identity.
"After 10 years all these alleys will look as decent, boring and funky as the rest of the city," she said . ".
Locals disagree on the success of the 1012 project, but one thing the project has not done successfully is to limit the number of visitors pouring into the city's narrow streets.
Now, the committee is looking to close and fine, something they can't do in an ambitious middle-class program.
