Ice skating is popular in North India in places like [[Ladakh]], [[Kashmir]] and [[Shimla]] where cold weather occurs and it is possible to skate outdoors. Much of India has a [[tropical climate]], hence in the rest of the country, ice skating is limited to the few artificial rinks available.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.indiatoday.in/magazine/your-week/story/20010618-indias-first-artificial-ice-skating-rink-opens-in-bangalore-775055-2001-06-17 |title=India's first artificial ice-skating rink opens in Bangalore : YOUR WEEK - India Today 18062001 |publisher=Indiatoday.intoday.in |date=2001-06-18 |access-date=2016-10-15}}</ref> An ice skating festival is organised in Shimla every year.<br />
