Key to my heart

Key to my heart

The most romantic bridge in Paris, Le Pont des Arts also known as the Passerelle des Arts is the target of love lockers. Built as a toll bridge in 1803, it was the city’s first iron bridge and lying close to the heart of France’s prestigious Academy of Arts and Letters, is celebrated by poets and artists for its delicate ironwork and beautiful Seine views. Today however more than 1,600 different sized and shaped “love locks” cling to its railings the oldest apparently dated 2008. Lovers from all over the world, aware of the bridge’s romancing traditions, have padlocked engraved metal souvenirs of their mutual enchantment, on the Pont des Arts railings before hurling the key into the Seine.

Paris before the storm

15 minutes after taking this shot we were both drenched... even in the pouring rain there is something so romantic about Paris, I just love getting lost in it
