During our stay in Bruges in March, we noticed a few love locks at the entrance gate of the Béguinage. As I explained earlier, a béguinage is a collection of small buildings used by Beguines: a religious movement of women. Even though it is a very private area, you are allowed to walk around as a tourist but there are signs everywhere asking you to be quiet (click HERE to see a 'silence please'-sign I posted before).
The béguinage is a peaceful place and attracts lots of tourists from around the world every day. These pictures were taken almost 2 months ago, how many couples have put a sign of their love here since then?
Linking to signs, signs.
Very slowly the love locks are catching on here in Canada.
BeantwoordenVerwijderenI had never seen them before. Very sweet!
BeantwoordenVerwijderenThe 'love locks' is a concept I don't quite understand but I'm sure the lock companies love all the sales!

I keeping hearing about these love locks in various places - I think they tend to be discouraged here
BeantwoordenVerwijderenIt seems to be a spreading trend!
BeantwoordenVerwijderenMost of the time, they hang them on a bridge.

That is so sweet :) First time I've seen and heard of this too :)
BeantwoordenVerwijderenI've seen them on bridges, but this is different.
BeantwoordenVerwijderenI vind het helemaal niets die slotjes aan de bruggen. Ze vernielen de bruggen ermee, ze zijn met veel te veel en te zwaar.
BeantwoordenVerwijdereni like the locks...i've seen a few here too, but on bridges
BeantwoordenVerwijderenI've seen a few of them here, but not many. Not sure sure how I feel about them.
