RLD (Red Light District)

The Red Light District (RLD) is an area within a city known for legal or tolerated prostitution and adult entertainment services. Historically, these districts operate openly with designated zones where sex work is regulated, often featuring windows or venues where sex workers interact with clients. RLDs may also include shops, bars, and entertainment venues. They serve as organized spaces where authorities oversee and regulate activities to ensure safety and legality. While their primary focus is on adult entertainment, perceptions and laws regarding RLDs vary across different cultures and legal systems.
