Sign in China

I wish I had some of those signs here!
 
This one is an absolute classic. The second line broadly translates as 'caution', the first line probably literally says 'be a courteous tourist' (I think). The nearest used English equivalent might be 'Please be respectful of other visitors'? Not sure.
The mistake comes from the first two characters, wen2ming2, which means both civilization and courtesy/manners.
