Re: Love-lorn lock-hangers keep Paris busy
As Kingtikitaki showed, South Korea has the right idea. Make certain areas where people can put the love locks, so they don't put them everywhere. Trying to stop them, is just not working.

Re: Gumbo's Pic of the Day, May 17, 2015: Love Locks, Pont des Arts, Paris
When I first started seeing the locks, I thought it was a vow to return- which still makes more sense to me then locking up love on a bridge

Sadly I think this is just an act of symbolism. Most of those locked loves are unlocked by the two participants in short order. I've always worried about the weight of all that metal on a bridge, and hearing that it damaged the bridge is no surprise. I think the idea of placing them elsewhere is a good one.

Kingtikitaki takes us to the love lock fence at N Seoul Tower. And unlike so many places that discourage people to put locks up, N Seoul Tower encourages it in designated areas.

I really like the "love lock tree"concept. Love locks have a nice sentiment, are hard to stop even if you wanted to, so might as well embrace them. Nice post, thanks.

Yes, as tacky as the sentiment is (I mean, lock up your love and throw away the key?) it's not going to end, and trying to banish it to an out-of-the-way place won't work either. But provide it with a setting that is special in its own way, and maybe it will work. In Heidelberg last summer we noted that there were hardly any locks on the city's Alte Brucke (Old Bridge), but next to the bridge, with a view of it and the castle, we spotted the Heidelbergerliebesstein, or Heidelberg Love Stone.

Paris set to unlock the 'Love Locks' problem
'Love Locks,' those padlocks attached to bridges and monuments all over, with the key thrown away to symbolize unbreakable affection, have been the subject of a serious backlash in many cities, and now Paris is ready to move on demands by local campaigners that they be removed.

No one really knows where it started, but it's spread all over the world in the past few years—"Love Locks" snapped onto railings, especially on bridges.
