What is a "skating rink"?
A skating rink is a designated area where people can skate, either on ice or on a smooth, hard surface. It is typically a large, flat space, with ice rinks used for ice skating or ice hockey, while non-ice rinks are used for roller skating or roller hockey. The rink is often surrounded by barriers or walls to keep skaters safe and prevent them from falling out. Skating rinks can be indoor or outdoor, and they are often used for recreational skating, figure skating, hockey games, and other skating-related activities.
