Ice Rink at Museumplein: A Winter Must-Do in Amsterdam<\/h2>\n

Did you know that people have been skating at Museumplein since 1864<\/b>? This long tradition of outdoor skating was once initiated by the Amsterdamsche IJsclub, and now Stichting Ice*Amsterdam<\/b> is breathing new life into this historic initiative.<\/p>\n

How fun skating with kids is, and how it brings people together, is something I experienced during my recent trip to New York, where the ice rink is already up. My son absolutely loved skating and having fun on the ice, and now he\u2019s thrilled that this winter-long<\/b> ice rink<\/b><\/a> is coming right in front of the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam too. For those just as excited, you can buy a 10-ride pass<\/b> or even a season pass<\/b> for the Ice Rink at Museumplein.<\/p>\n

More than Skating: Enjoy Drinks and Winter Treats at the Ice Rink at Museumplein<\/h2>\n

Need a break from skating? Or how about lunch, drinks, or a bite to eat in the evening? There\u2019s also a restaurant at the rink<\/b>! After a few hours of skating, nothing is better than warming up with a hot chocolate<\/b> or a glass of mulled wine<\/b>. The restaurant next to the ice rink offers an extensive winter menu<\/b> with options like cheese fondue<\/b> in various flavors, juicy burgers, or warm apple strudel.<\/p>\n

Who will you go skating and dining with? You can easily reserve a table<\/b><\/a> for lunch, drinks, or dinner on the website. Just want drinks? There\u2019s also a cozy food chalet with an outdoor bar<\/b>. There, you can order all sorts of winter drinks and snacks from a smaller menu. For the kids, they even serve delicious pancakes<\/b>!<\/p>\n
