Love Lock Bridge in Paris, France Fun Easy Things to do in Paris

One of the things I found when I was researching was this “love lock bridge.” A lot of times when I find cool things like this they are never near the city or where we are staying. I was excited to learn that the bridge was near the Louvre. I thought the idea of leaving a “love lock” in Paris of all places was sentimental and a fun symbol of love. I read online that the government took all of the locks off the bridge and like 3 weeks later the bridge was full of locks again so they just accept it now I guess. It didn’t really specify what bridge and I still don’t know if we were on the right one because there are locks on a lot of the bridges. I would recommend getting one engraved to take with you. The locks that were engraved looked really cool and obviously last longer than permanent marker.

With all of the walking you do in Paris it is easy to come across a love lock bridge we found several while we were there but since I forgot to purchase a lock we were lucky to come across some man selling them on the bridge. He will give you a marker, a lock, and 2 keys for about 15-20 euro. We then threw one key into the river and kept one for sentimental reasons. This was a fun little stop but you don’t need to make a point to come here. Just go wherever you are going and you will come across a love lock bridge sooner than later.
Even though it wasn’t that exciting at first it’s fun to look back and say that we left our hearts locked on the bridge in Paris.
