Hi everyone and thanks for watching this question! I'll stay in Tokyo from the 26th December to the 5th of January and it is my big dream to go ice skating there. Do you know a good place to go ice skating?

Thanks

Ichigomomo,

If it's the same as previous years, there will be an outdoor rink set up in front of the old redbrick warehouses in Minatomirai, Yokohama from December to January, so you might want to try that. Nearest station is Sakuragicho on the JR Keihin-Tohoku Line.

Hard to believe such a major tourist site in Yokohama doesn't have an English-language website, but you can see pictures of the outdoor rink here...

It operates from 6 December to 15 February, 1pm to 10pm (all night on 31st Dec), cost 500 yen + 500 yen for skates.

Shinagawa Skate Center in front of Shinagawa Station and Kanakgawa Skate Rink near Higashi-kanagawa Station

are probably the top two major skate rinks in Tokyo area. The Kanagawa Skate Rink is also close to Tanmachi Station which is accessible from the MM21 (Minatomirai) district without changing trains.
