The National Speed Skating Oval, also known as the "Ice Ribbon", is the only newly built ice competition venue for the 2022 Beijing Winter Olympics. During the Beijing Winter Olympics, athletes from many countries broke the Olympic and world records 13 times at the National Speed Skating Oval. Many athletes and sports industry players acclaim it as "the fastest ice".

The National Speed Skating Oval is the first speed skating venue in Winter Olympics history to use carbon dioxide as a refrigerant. It is environmentally friendly and has a steady temperature difference on the ice surface. In last July, "Ice Ribbon" was officially opened to the public. The ice rink of the first phase has an area of approximately 6000 square meters, and the on-site landscape design retains the Olympic elements from the Winter Olympics. Visitors can not only experience "the fastest ice", but also stand on the award podium to experience the feeling of claiming a medal, and take a photo with Bing Dwen Dwen.

It is equipped with service areas such as a skate shoe rental, preparation area, and resting area. There are speed skating shoes designed for both professional ice skaters and beginners. Professional rubber flooring has been laid in the preparation area to ensure that visitors can walk safely after putting on skate shoes. In addition, lockers are also available.

In addition to the speed skating rink used during the Olympics, there are also two standard ice hockey rinks for figure skating, short track speed skating, curling, and ice hockey training.

Whether you are a beginner or a veteran who has been on the ice rink for decades, you can find your joy here.
