The internationally known nightlife district hosted more than 30 clubs and was especially popular among younger people and residents of the metropolitan area surrounding Munich. Famous nightclubs within the Kunstpark Ost were for example the techno clubs Ultraschall, KW – Das Heizkraftwerk and Natraj Temple as well as Babylon which addressed younger party-goers.
