You've Been Walking the Museum Backwards This Whole Time.

To say the set route (follow the arrows) in Japanese, say 順路 (junro).

Two kanji and an arrow on the wall quietly decide which direction you're supposed to walk, and you've been going the other way.

順路 junro the set route (follow the arrows)

In this video

順路はこちらです。 junro wa kochira desu. The route is this way.
順路に沿って進んでください。 junro ni sotte susunde kudasai. Please follow the route.

Kanji in this phrase

順路: じゅんろ
沿って: そって

Why this phrase

順路 means the set route, the way a place is meant to be walked. Museums, aquariums, castles and gardens all use it, and once you spot it you stop swimming upstream past everyone. Bonus: the route is the order the whole thing was designed to be seen in.
