Paris breaks the hearts of locals and tourists as the 'love locks' have been removed from Pont des Arts bridge in Paris.
Paris, dubbed as the city of romance, is something you can find in everyone’s bucket list of must-see places. Dream travel destinations such as the famous Eiffel Tower, the legendary bookstore Shakespeare and Company and of course, who would want to miss the romantic Pont des Arts bridge? Each of these places are absolutely iconic.
Couples from different parts of the world come to visit Pont des Arts and leave padlocks or ‘love locks’ as a symbol of infinite love. It’s actually a tradition which began in 2008. Just recently though, authorities broke the hearts of many locals and tourists as these padlocks have been removed and now banned from the said bridge.
Armed with bolt cutters, city workmen began cutting the love locks open fearing that the sheer weight of the padlocks was putting the 19th century structure – and everyone’s safety – great at risk. Reports say that about 700,000 padlocks, with names of couples written on them and the keys tossed into the River Seine, have been there for years.
