Local authorities in Fuji-Kawaguchiko, Yamanashi Prefecture have removed a screen blocking an iconic view of Mount Fuji hovering over a convenience store here just three months after installing it.
(日本)山梨縣富士河口湖町當局在此間一家勞森便利商店後方架設阻擋知名的富士山景的屏障後,僅3個月就拆除這面屏障。
The barrier was erected to deter tourists whose unruly behavior, including jaywalking and littering, had angered residents.
當初架設該屏障是為了阻止令居民憤怒的不守規矩的遊客,其惡行包括不遵守交通規則隨意穿越馬路與亂丟垃圾。
Officials removed the mesh screen on Aug. 15 as a precaution against Typhoon No. 7. They have no immediate plans to reinstall the barrier, but have indicated they may do so if tourist behavior worsens.
為避免第7號颱風來襲時釀災,官員在8月15日拆除這面網狀屏障,而且並無計畫立即重新架設屏障,但稱若遊客又不守規矩,他們就可能會重設屏障。
The barrier, 20 meters long and 2.5 meters high, was installed across the street from the front of the Lawson Kawaguchiko Ekimae outlet on May 21.
這面長20公尺、高2.5公尺的屏障在5月21日被架設於勞森便利商店河口湖站的正門的對街。
