Christmas Ice skating rinks in Milan

During the winter season Milan is full of christmas markets set in the most characteristic venues. There is space for taste, handicrafts products and food all over the country but if you like to have some fun with all wintery activities strolling around I’ve rounded up some places to go ice skating while in the city 😉.
