Пам'ятник закоханим, Monument in Architects Square, Kharkiv, Ukraine
The monument depicts two embracing figures forming an arch, with a water fountain at its base in the central part of Architects Square.
The monument originated from a 2002 design competition among architectural students, with Dmitry Ivanchenko from Kharkiv State Academy creating the winning concept.
Local couples visit the monument to participate in a tradition where kissing near the fountain represents enduring love between partners.
The monument stands 30 meters from Architect Beketov metro station, with multiple bus lines stopping nearby for convenient access.
The structure received a gold paint coating in 2009 and features miniature replicas of seven Kharkiv landmarks around its perimeter.
