Luzhkov Bridge, Pedestrian bridge at Kadashevskaya Embankment, Moscow, Russia.
The Luzhkov Bridge crosses the Vodootvodny Canal with a solid steel structure offering three separate walkways and ornamental metal railings. The structure connects Bolotnaya Square directly with Kadashevskaya Embankment.
The structure was designed and built in 1994 by the Giprostroymost Institute to link two important city areas. The bridge emerged as part of urban development to improve transportation connections in the district.
The bridge takes its name from a former mayor who championed the project, and it has become a place where couples express affection through time-honored practices. The metal trees here have turned into a meeting point for people celebrating their bonds.
The bridge sits roughly 800 meters from Tretyakovskaya metro station and is easily reached on foot. The wide access points and level paths make it a common route for pedestrians traveling in both directions.
The bridge railing holds love locks that couples attach to express affection, a practice dating back to the early 2000s. A special element is the Reconciliation Bench with wings and wedding rings, inviting couples to sit close together.
