Known as the “Winter Palace”, Beihai Park covers an area of above 15,000 square meters. Beihai Park Ice Rink used to be a place for royal family to hold ice-skating activities, and it is recorded that Empress Dowager Cixi watched the ice performance every year at this spot.

Today, it has become a welcome ice rink that is equipped with around 400 ice wagons, 350 ice skates and 100 ice bikes. Besides, every year at Beihai Park, there will be a fabulous ice performance given by performers dressed like Eight Banner Ice Skating Battalion, trying to reproduce the ancient ice activity held in this royal garden.

Old or young, it is always easy to find excitement and happiness in skating at Beihai Park. Tourists can get away from the noise of the city and find endless joy and excitement in appreciating the white pagoda, viewing the landscapes and sliding the ice wagon here with their families.
