Werksviertel-Mitte is an evolving area / neighborhood hosting a mix of urban culture, innovative business spaces, and entertainment:
Art, concert and nightlife venues (like Technikum and TonHalle), restaurants, bars… a lot going on.
I had dinner there once at the Thai street food restaurant Khanittha, where I made the mistake of drinking some green, authentic Thai softdrink that tasted horrible. To be fair though, even the waiter told me afterwards that he was surprised to see a German order it.
In the Werksviertel there’s a ferris wheel – the Umadum – from which you can see a grazing herd of sheep on one of the surrounding buildings (and have a great view of the city of course) 🐑 🎡 Personally never been on it though.
Tickets cost 14€ and going around once takes about 30 mins.
The Werksviertel is home to WERK1, a co-working space and incubator for digital entrepreneurship, calling itself the “most startup-friendly place in Munich”.
