Ice skating at the rink, one of the city's most celebrated traditions. Each winter, visitors lace up their skates and twirl away at The Rink at Rockefeller Center. Here you'll find New Yorkers and visitors alike skating at the base of the iconic Christmas tree and Paul Manship's highly recognizable bronze gilded statue of the Greek legend of the Titan Prometheus in the heart of Rockefeller Center.
