This part of the Rockefeller becomes a skating rink in winter. You can buy tickets online or directly there, you can rent skates and you can sharpen them if you bring your own. They have free lockers to leave backpacks, or large bags. For the schedules better consult the web. We went very early in the morning and there weren't many people, however, another day we came back in the afternoon and it was quite full. It is best to get tickets online.

In this skating rink the big Christmas tree is put up every year. They adorn it amazingly and it's a perfect Christmas frame, great to use for selfies and group photos. Perfectly transmits the Christmas spirit. In this skating rink the big Christmas tree is put up every year.

Sure, they have usually 2 to 3 guys helping people who fell to get up. The only problem, I would say, is if you get shy of falling down with a loooot of people watching... The rink is rounded by a restaurant at the lower level. Above usually there are many expectators of this wonderful touristic place.
