Wēnxīn tíshì 溫馨提示 (Warm prompt)
On the road to The Bezeklik Caves, Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Region, China
Don’t you just love “Chinglish”. You get a sense of what this sign is trying to say but, it really has been lost in translation. I did not follow the “warm prompt” so I guess I will just have to suffer the consequences’…! The complete/correct translation of the sign is as follows..
Tips. No parking on the roadside, take pictures at your own risk.
The pictures below are the result of me risking and taking pictures. They show some of the set from the film "A Journey to the West" Chinese 2017 incarnation and more "lost in translation" signage.
