Winter Wonderland
The holiday break is just around the corner leaving time for international students to try one of the most popular sports in the Netherlands: ice skating. Take a friend to explore the Old Market, known in Dutch as the Oude Markt, in the city center of Enschede. This downtown area has been transformed into a Winter Wonderland, including an outdoor ice skating rink, a ferris wheel and stalls selling everything from hot chocolate to tiny Dutch pancakes called poffertjes. Skate rental costs € 4, and the entry fee is €3.50. The Winter Wonderland is open to the public Monday through Sunday and will end on January 11.
