Oh I didn’t realize these only existed in France!

These are cool indeed.

I think their placement is weird though. They really don’t tell you how to get there. Sometimes they are very far from the thing they advertise. And you really shouldn’t go off the motorway when you see the sign. It could be quite confusing when you actually are planning to go to that place.

Also a bunch of places that are shown in the sign are privately owned like zoos and recreation parks. These tend to be iconic ones but it still feels a little off.

Well, they don't, I've seen them at least in Hungary and Italy.

Still, it is possible France came up with them first.
