Most Famous Love Lock Bridges Around the World

We like to immortalize our love with different ways of expression. Sometimes it may be through a little gift for our loved ones, sometimes it may be by leaving some trace behind us to seal our love. Locking your love on one of the love lock bridges around the world has become quite popular for couples in the last decades. The tradition consists of throwing away the key to the sea or the river so the lock will never be broken. Although this may not be the best thing to do on a bridge, it offers great memories for couples. Now let’s take a look at the most famous love lock bridges around the world!

Pont des Arts Bridge, Paris, France

Probably the most famous love lock bridge is in the center of the city of love, Paris. The bridge that crosses River Seine has been an iconic place to show your devotion to your partner for a long time. However, putting locks on it is forbidden since 2015 due to the weight it puts on the bridge.

The bridge that crosses River Rhine is located in Cologne, Germany. It is the oldest bridge in Cologne. It has become one of the Bridges of Love because of the thousands of couples putting love locks on it.

Mt. Huangshan, Anhui, China

Huangshan has a magnificent place in Chinese art and literature. It is also known as ”the loveliest mountain of China”. Lovers put their love locks on the mountain and throw the keys into the valley.

Luzhkoz Bridge, Moscow, Russia

The bridge also known as ”The Bridge of Kisses,” contains a series of metal trees for couples to put their love locks on.
