Outdoor Ice Skating at Gorky Park
Skating at Gorky Park is a classic and romantic date, especially during the frosty Moscow winter. The stunning landscape combined with the intimate activity of skating hand in hand, makes this an ideal date for couples.
- One of the best parts of ice skating at Gorky Park in winter is the ice itself. The frozen surfaces are polished and treated to create the ideal skating conditions. You have to put on warm clothing for this date, especially if you plan on staying after dark. Once you're on the ice, feel free to take breaks and just enjoy the beauty of the park.
- For lunch or dinner, you can try a few of the food stands in the park for some warm bites. It's a fun way to experience more of Russian culture. If the two of you get tired of skating, there are other activities at the park that you can check out too, like the observation decks.
- The entire park is beautifully lit in the evenings, adding a touch of magic to your night. There can be a lot of people, both locals and tourists, but this is part of the charm. People tend to be very friendly on the ice, offering a hand to get up if you fall.
Preparation steps:
- To prepare for this date, be sure to check the weather beforehand. Make sure you have warm enough clothes for skating, including gloves and a hat. Dress in layers to be comfortable both on and off the ice. Don't forget to pack a bag with essentials such as tissues, hand sanitizers and a small first-aid kit.
- Many couples like wearing matching scarves or hats while out on the ice. Itโs a fun way to show that you're both on a date. Remember to bring your own skates if you have them, as renting them in the park can be quite expensive.
- Finally, plan something for after the skating fun. It could be a warm drink, a cozy dinner, or even just a quiet walk around the park. It will give you something to look forward to.
