Obergiesing
Fasangarten is part of the district 17 Obergiesing-Fasangarten and forms the south-eastern outskirts of the city. The city of Munich describes the district as a narrow strip between the south-eastern section of the Mittlerer Ring and the S-Bahn line S3 to Holzkirchen, which includes areas closer to the city center as well as the south-eastern outskirts of the city with the Fasangarten. This location is particularly interesting from a residential perspective: Fasangarten is clearly located within Munich, but its location next to the forest and its small-scale structure make it much quieter than many central districts.
A major advantage of the location is its immediate proximity to Perlach Forest. As a result, Fasangarten combines proximity to the city and nature in a way that is comparatively rare in Munich.
In everyday life, Fasangarten is closely connected to several neighboring residential areas. On the existing Mr. Lodge site, Harlaching, Unterhaching and Giesing are explicitly mentioned as nearby alternatives; the City of Munich also clearly locates Fasangarten within the Obergiesing-Fasangarten district. This is important for those looking for a home, because although the district appears quiet and independent, it is not isolated.
Fasangarten is primarily a quiet residential area with a small housing estate character - single-family houses and small housing estates with green spaces. The residential pattern is therefore much smaller than in many other locations in the south-east of Munich. This is what makes the district interesting for people who want to live in Munich in a more secluded and residential manner.
Historically, this character can be explained by the district's origins. The City of Munich's KulturGeschichtsPfad (CulturalHistoryTrail) states that a wild settlement developed in the 1920s in the previously wooded area and that Fasangarten was incorporated into Munich on October 1, 1937. The district was already considered independent in the 1920s before it became part of Munich in 1937. This is precisely what gives it the image of a residential district that has grown rather than being strictly planned, which is still noticeable today.
Typical resident groups in the district are, for example
This classification results from the small-scale residential structure, the proximity to the forest and the S-Bahn connection to the city center.

For everyday needs, the existing Mr. Lodge site lists all the stores for daily necessities. This makes the provision appear more functional than metropolitan, but fits in well with the character of the neighborhood. This in particular contributes to the Fasangarten's suitability for everyday use.
In terms of gastronomy, Fasangarten also remains rather residential. Mr. Lodge names a few restaurants, cafés and bars. This underlines the character of the district: quiet, practical and without a pronounced nightlife structure.
A major advantage of Fasangarten is its direct proximity to Perlach Forest. There are also many green spaces and other leisure activities in the surrounding area. The district is therefore particularly suitable for walks, cycling and everyday exercise.
