No authorized prostitute streets exist at present, but there are some areas, such as Tobitashinchi in Osaka, where prostitute houses continue to provide the same services as before 1958, under the pretext of free love between a customer and a maid in a private room, by transforming themselves into a Japanese-style hotel outwardly.
現在公認の娼婦街はないが、大阪の飛田新地など、表向き料理旅館に転向したものの、客と仲居との個室内での自由恋愛の名目の元に、1958年以前と変わらない営業を継続している地域もいくつかある。
