In view of last year’s great success, the Ice World (Jégvilág), born from the cooperation of Budapest Park and Ferencváros Municipality, awaits those who want to go ice skating again this year. And based on last season’s experiences, they even prepared a larger ice surface! They increased the ice surface by 200 square meters, which means that skaters can enjoy a total of 1,500 square meters. A ticket is valid for the whole day, and can be purchased online in advance, writes budapestkornyeke.hu. This cozy ice skating spot even has an ice corridor, making skating even more fun!
