In the image we can see there is a stage on which a decorated christmas tree is kept and there are two snowmans dolls. There is tv on the table and there is a red carpet on the floor. There are two doors and there are photo frames on the wall. On the top it's written "OPPO".

Brest’s festive ice rink set to open with real ice by December 1

Brest is preparing to open a new ice rink in time for the festive season. Authorities have brought in specialist equipment to create a 'real ice' surface around the city’s main Christmas tree. The rink is scheduled to welcome skaters from December 1.

Workers have started setting up a refrigeration system to freeze the rink’s surface. The process involves flooding the area with four tons of coolant and 60 tons of water. Technicians have a 10-day deadline to finish the installation.

The ice rink will operate from the start of the month. With the refrigeration unit in place, the city expects a smooth opening. Skaters can look forward to gliding on real ice beneath the Christmas tree.
