Inside The ASIAN Sex Industry
Asia's dirtiest secrets revealed — What are you looking for?
Check out our in-depth, no-nonsense guides to Asia’s multi-faceted adult industry:
Ever taken a trip down Soi Cowboy, or along the Geylang Road? Asia has some of the most notorious red light districts in the world. We take a look at what happens after dark in these infamous tourist traps...
From Tokyo’s discreet soaplands to Manila’s hidden parlours, Asia’s brothels offer rich pickings for the wandering eye. We uncover the secrets behind these pleasure houses and what keeps them buzzing.
The Asian escort scene is much more fragmented than in Europe, but there's still a broad mix of independents, agencies and VIP courtesans. We examine the various local laws and pricing.
Japan’s infamous soaplands promise slippery thrills and that famously meticulous Oriental service. We explore some of the better-known steamy sanctuaries. Where bath time takes a sensual turn...
What's so sexy about a karaoke lounge? Well, let's just say Asia has a sexy interpretation known as the KTV experience, where sign-along lounges can get pretty damn fruity after the mic drops...
It's a dumb idea to go cruising the streets for hookers, and it can land you in serious hot water. We look at the various scams and stings, local laws, and why you should probably keep it in your pants.
Short stays, kinky intentions. Love hotels are a unique part of the Asian sex scene, not just used by sex workers but also by couples looking for privacy. How do they work? And what goes on behind closed doors?
The famous AMP (Asian Massage Parlour) has been exported all over the world, much to the punter's delight, so it's no surprise that Asia has thousands of them. The menus don't leave much to the imagination.
Hostess Clubs
Local high-rollers often trade the touristy neon chaos for the refined charm of hostess clubs, where glamorous company comes with a steep pour. Very popular in Japan and Thailand.

We rely on loyal readers to ensure our guides remain current, comprehensive, and valuable for anybody interested in Asia's adult entertainment economy.

If you have a correction, suggestion, or recommendation, please use our Listings form to contact us.
Venue and service listings are 100% free; however, we can only feature legal services. Since adult industry laws vary across Asia, we can only include venues and services that operate legally and possess all necessary licenses and permits in their respective countries.
We provide no guarantee that submissions will be accepted. The review process typically takes up to 3 weeks, but a faster 2-day expedited review option is available.

A team fuelled by insomnia, caffeine, and browser histories worthy of serious concern.

Founder & Editor
Simon is the editor-in-chief at AsiaSexScene (and the overlord behind RLN Media). He lived in Asia for several years, though he swears that his intricate knowledge of various red light districts is purely from a 'curious observer' perspective. Hmm! Simon splits his time between this site, our Euro spin-off, AdultVisor and the adult conference circuit. His work covering the adult industry has been featured in Vice, Men’s Health, TechCrunch and (redacted) on his mum's fridge.
Contact Simon if you have an intriguing story or an update for one of our existing guides.

Founder & Editor
Senior Contributor
Mike splits his "professional life" between sarcastically dissecting sex tourism hotspots in Europe and Asia, while wading through his responsibilities as adult gaming editor over at AdultVisor—both part of RLN Media. He has been working with our founder Simon Regal for over a decade. In Simon's words: "Yeah, about twelve years too long". Likely in possession of The World's Dirtiest Search History™.
Mike specifically says "please do not contact me" but if you really insist:
