Parterre

Ice skating in Europe is a tradition, and it would be a shame not to take part in some of the beautiful rinks that they have available during this time of year. Florence has a rink open near the Parterre section of the city where you can strap on a pair of skates and enjoy the cool ice. You'll find all different age groups here from young children to old couples looking to have a good time. You can rent a pair of skates here if you need to. It's the perfect way to get out of the crowded city center and enjoy a few hours participating in this wintertime activity.
