Love Locks – A Recent Russian Wedding Tradition

Love locks tree, Moscow

When I returned to Moscow nearly a year ago, I was surprised to eventually discover that one of the bridges that is very popular with newlyweds has acquired this lovely sculpture (left). Little did I know that the tree you can see through the ring is made of… locks. This tradition sees couples sign the lock with their names and hand it on a tree, a suitable structure, or a bridge. This September I saw locks adorning the bridge in Yekaterinburg.
