On Furl, I noticed a number of people linking to this gallery of photos of a spectacular location. However, the text of the site is in pictographs (Chinese?), and I have no idea what the location is. Is it real? Is it from a videogame? Here are a couple of sample images.


Update 11-24-04: I ran the gallery’s about page through the automatic translators at WorldLingo.com The Chinese-to-English translator didn’t come up with much, but the Japanese-to-English translator had more luck:
...The people of the town which is the worldwide biggest enormous flood-prevention facility…
...We would like to designate the start-up of this home page as G-CANS PROJECT where anyone can participate in the opportunity. The person who has lived in area and so the person who is not, being this enormous, concerning the charm of minute engineering works structure…
So—unless this is an elaborate hoax to promote a video game— it seems like this is a gigantic flood-prevention facility in Japan.
