| | One of the greatest source of amusement for Beijing visitors is the exaggerated language used in Chinese advertisements. They are often badly translated, mis-understood Western concepts, and at times, simply bizarre.

Olympic host city." 
The above Chinese advertisement says "Be a foreigner's landlord!" [Source: China Machete]
