A "Love Padlock" is a padlock that couples attach to a bridge or other public structure as a symbol of their love. The couple typically engraves their names or initials on the padlock before locking it in place and throwing the key into the water below, signifying their unbreakable bond. This tradition has become popular in many cities around the world, including Paris and Rome. While it represents love and commitment, some cities have removed these locks due to concerns about structural damage and littering, prompting discussions about preserving the romantic gesture without harming public spaces.
