Amsterdam is trying to reduce the crowds of tourists and stag parties in the red-light district. One way they hope to do this is to ban the use of Cannabis in the red-light district. They are also reducing the opening hours of the bars, restaurants, cafes and brothels in the district. The local community is upset by the rising tourism and drunkards in the streets. Stag parties are one such fly in the ointment the city wishes to stamp out.
