Just about any entertainment can be found here - brothels, spice dens, barrooms, dance halls, even gladiatorial matches.

 Radavan is roughly the size of the continental United States in our world, so as a shorthand there is often a real-world American city analogue to the city-states of this continent. For example, Vice is analogous to the weather and geography of Las Vegas, NV.  Radavan is roughly the size of the continental United States in our world, so as a shorthand there is often a real-world American city analogue to the city-states of this continent.
