This is a section of the famed Pont des Arts bridge of the Seine river in Paris, France. Sadly the tradition of attaching a lock to the bridge as a symbol of love ended in the summer of 2015 when Paris officials redesigned the bridge so locks could no longer be attached to it.
Over the years the locks became too heavy for the bridge to support and it was a matter of safety to force people to stop attaching the locks to the bridge. Read the full story here.
Thankfully we were able to visit in November of 2013 and witness the bridge first hand.
