Other countries where there are bridges where lovers have made their love public and concrete in the same way include Rome Italy, Moscow Russia and Cologne Germany. After inscribing the padlock with a personal message, the lovers attach their padlock to the bridge and throw the key into the river below. Some of these couples return to these cities years later - perhaps on one of their wedding anniversaries - to see how their mature love stacks against the young and new of their honeymoon days.
Then there are those bridges known as meeting places for lovers. Exchange a kiss with your spouse here, make a wish as you do, and folk lore says your wish will come true.
In Moscow Russia, in one of the underground railway stations there’s a statue of a dog which is believed to be lucky. Tourists and locals alike invariably touch the dog’s nose for luck with the result that the nose unlike its body, is shiny and bright.
Based on the book, 'Honeymoon! A Sizzle or a Fizzle'
