Pont des Arts from Square du Vert-Galant by Beausoleil Star this if you like it!

The Pont des Arts or Passerelle des Arts is a pedestrian bridge in Paris which crosses the Seine River. It links the Institut de France and the central square of the Palais du Louvre. Since people putting "love locks" on it caused part of the railings to fall off the bridge in 2014, the railings have been replaced with plexiglass panels so locks can't be hung there any more. Of course now people are hanging the silly locks all over fences and bridges in the rest of the city now despite all the authorities do to discourage them . . . or encourage them to find a substitute activity to declare their undying love.
