  2. Finity says:

  5. Aoife says:

    * scratches head in mystification *

  6. Tracy says:

    I’m going with “Do Not Enter” in the red, and “under construction” for the rest of it, guessing that they got the past/present tense wrong, and that it’s not yet finished in time for the visitors. (But will be soon?)

    Or maybe it really was finished in visit time, but this is the EXIT?

  7. Gio says:

    I bet a lot of people will be happy that this is true engrish. And I’m pretty sure the sign is trying to say “We’re closed. Do not enter.”

  8. D.R. says:

    So it’s finished, but you can’t go in?

    …Help!!

  9. pedant says:

    Its a hospital or hospice / nursing home sign, meaning to say that visiting time has finished.

  10. Smiley says:

    It means, “It was dangerous earlier but, now it’s safe”
    I think…

  11. lozzy says:

    I have This EXACT same photo at home… well a photo of the exact same sign anyway. Not a word of a lie. I could upload it. I took it while in Japan, in Kyoto in front of the Chion-In Temple. I couldn’t beleive it when I saw the pic.

  12. Psychedelic says:

    Excellent one for a t-shirt-type nightie. She’d never have to say “not tonight, dear, I have a headache!”

  13. attorney says:

    which means what?
