In the cold months of Christmas, when sheets of ice cover the streets and the lake is like a beautiful mirror on which you can walk, you know it is time to put on those ice skating shoes and glide like a swan across the ice skating rink in your city. However, not everyone is lucky enough to be living in a place that winter turns to ice-land. So, what do we do? Do we put all our ice skating dreams in the overhead cabin and forget about them? Not so fast. We have brought you a list of 5 places around the world that are very famous as outdoor ice skating destinations. So this Christmas, wish you Feliz Navidad and happy ice skating. Here is the list of famous ice skating rinks around the world:<\/p>\n

1. Rideau Canal, Ottawa Canada<\/span><\/h2>\n
\"Rideau<\/a>

Rideau Canal is one of\u00a0the world’s largest ice skating rink<\/strong><\/em><\/p><\/div>\n

Now where do I begin about the Rideau Canal Skateway in Ottawa, Canada. The famous Skateway is not only the world’s largest ice skating rink but has also been declared a UNESCO world Heritage site. If there is one event that the Rideau Canal Skateway is famous for it is the Winterlude. The Winterlude starts towards the end of January and extends well into the middle of February. The ice sculpture competition is a major attraction for tourists the world over. The Winterlude receives a footfall of hundreds of thousands of visitors every year.<\/p>\n

I guess I have to take back my words. The Rideau Canal is as much a focal center of the Winterlude as the Winterlude is a highlight of the world’s largest ice skating rink.<\/p>\n

And the best part is the skating rink opens in January. So, you can celebrate Christmas and New Year’s Eve with your family and friends and then take off to Ottawa for a nice spin in the ice.<\/p>\n
