Potemkin Village
As currently used, this is something that is impressive on the outside, but it is in fact a false front concealing an unseemly interior.
The term is named after Minister Grigori Potemkin, who constructed fakek, happy villages for Catherine the Great to view as she toured the Ukraine.
