Ice skaters take a stroll on Amsterdam’s frozen canals

Subscribe to our channel! Dozens of residents took advantage of Amsterdam’s frozen canals, on Sunday, to brush-off their ice skating skills. The city’s canals froze during the cold weather brought by Storm Darcy, the first major snowstorm to affect the Netherlands in a decade, which caused significant disruption to rail, road, and air traffic across the country. Authorities have urged people to avoid crowding in order to prevent the spread of COVID-19. According to the latest data compiled on Sunday by the John Hopkins University Coronavirus Resource Center, the Netherlands registered over 1 million confirmed cases of coronavirus and nearly 15,000 deaths with the disease.
