In this photo taken Tuesday, Feb. 4, 2014 a hologram of a beckoning prostitute is shown at the entrance of the 'Red Light Secrets' museum in Amsterdam. On any given evening, thousands of tourists stroll down the narrow streets of Amsterdam's famed Red Light District, gawking at ladies in lingerie who work behind windows, making a living selling sex for money. Now a small educational museum is opening in heart of the district that aims to show reality from the other side of the glass. Organizer Melcher de Wind says the Red Light Secrets museum is for those who want to learn more about how the area works without actually visiting a prostitute. (AP Photo/Evert Elzinga)
