Jerusalem? Never Heard of That City
Jerusalem, Israel - Something always gets lost in translation, but usually not an entire city.
"Jerusalem. There is no such city!" the Jerusalem municipality said in the English-language version of a sightseeing brochure it had published originally in Hebrew.

The correct translation: "Jerusalem. There is no city like it!"

Tens of thousands of these flyers had been distributed before city hall realised its mistake.
