Locks of Love at N Seoul Tower
Caption / Description:

Outside the N Seoul Tower you find the fences covered with locks. These locks are known as the 'Locks of Love'. The idea is that lovers buy a lock each, they then lock their locks together (and to the fence), to symbolize their love for each other, that they will stay together.

Many of the locks also have small messages attached to them.
