The largest artificial ice rink in Europe has opened in Moscow, Izvestia writes. Its territory is decorated with multi-colored bulbs and a bridge for pedestrians. The main decoration of the ice rink is a field of glowing flowers. The lights shimmer in rows of snowdrops, cornflowers and forget-me-nots in the center of the skating rink.

The area of ​​the artificial ice cover exceeds 20,000 square meters; 11 refrigeration units ensure the functioning of the ice rink.

The tradition of organizing skating rinks at the VDNKh exhibition center has been going on for almost 70 years.
