Pink Light Salons

[Abso88]

Surprisingly enough, they're probably one of the safest places you can enter. The girls inside know exactly why you're there. You know why you're there. No worries about being over-charged for drinks, services/goods you didn't order etc. If you visit one of the more out-of-the-way shops in a side-street and you're a Westerner, chances are the girls are completely taken by surprise by your visit and ripping you off will be the last thing on their minds. They're just not set-up to rob people unlike some of the coffee shop/art gallery scams in the tourist areas.

Take usual precautions: don't go there with a wallet full of cash. Don't walk in if a couple of policemen are standing outside the front door etc. Show the girls respect and try to speak a few words of Mandarin.

Unlike some establishments in China, these shops aren't set-up to rip foreigners off. I've found that the dingier, and the farther away from the main tourist streets they are, the safer I feel.

Don't pay more than Y200 FS or Y100 R&T.

Lots of upside, not much downside with these shops. Scout around and see a girl you like inside, then go in. Good chance to practice your Mandarin skills. For less than $30, you haven't got much to lose. You may just have a good time

Has anyone here been to a pink light salon in China?
I've only seen them, but never got the balls to go in, didn't want to get taken or robbed. Any tips and experience would be helpful. Good or bad. I just want info.
