Ice skating in front of the opera house
The Christmas movies from the USA show one scene above all: romantic cut shoe running in Central Park. But what works there also works in Switzerland. Next to the Zurich Christmas market there is an ice rink that is perfect for a romantic date. Even if you aren’t professionals on the ice, it will definitely be fun. And not always seeing each other perfectly breaks the ice.
