For me, only the second sentence sounds right. If you were just saying "Welcome to my home", that would be fine. However, you are saying "You are welcome to visit my home". In this sentence, I think "you are" is necessary. Your sentence sounds strangely incomplete without those words.
Yes,
If you said "Welcome to my home.", as Owlman5 suggests, you would use this phrase as a greeting to someone visiting your home.
If you said "You are welcome to visit my home.", you would use this phrase to invite someone to visit your home or to let them know that your home is open to them.

Hi,
if I use "You are welcome to my home", is there any difference between "You are welcome to my home" and "Welcome to my home" ?
Hi,
Where is it wrong? is it wrong in grammar or other aspects?
"Welcome to visit my home" is wrong simply because nobody says it. If you want a rule on this, you've come to the wrong language.
"You are welcome to my home" and "Welcome to my home" have essentially the same meaning. However, beware of saying "You are welcome to..." followed by a noun. This often means "Please take it away, I don't want it"!

Hello,
You means,such as,"You are welcome to cigarette " means "please take the cigarette away,I don't want cigarette." ? In addition, is there difference between "You are welcome to play with me" and "Welcome to play with me" ? Thank you.
You might say:
"You are welcome to a cigarette, they're in the box on the table."
"You're welcome to those clothes, I don't wear them any more."
You shouldn't say: "We will soon be landing in China; you are welcome to it."
That means "Please take it away, I don't want it"!
But once again, we don't say "Welcome to <verb>". Always use "You are welcome to <verb>".
"You are welcome to a cigarette, they're in the box on the table."
"You're welcome to those clothes, I don't wear them any more."
You shouldn't say: "We will soon be landing in China; you are welcome to it."

Thanks for your help, it makes a lot sense ,but I don't understand the sentence "We will soon be landing in China; you are welcome to it" . What does it mean? What do "you" and "it" represent? Thank you.
An air hostess says to her passengers: "We will soon be landing. Welcome to China!"
She mustn't say: "We will soon be landing in China; you are welcome to it." That would mean "I don't like China, you can have it".
She mustn't say: "We will soon be landing in China; you are welcome to it." That would mean "I don't like China, you can have it".
Hi，I am sorry I remains unclear to this structure
Does “You're welcome to those clothes” in this sentence "You're welcome to those clothes, I don't wear them any more." have the same meaning with “you are welcome to it” in this sentence "We will soon be landing in China; you are welcome to it." ? If not, how can I distinguish them when people use it? Is it the commom phrase? Thank you.

You are welcome to it is a common phrase. You may say it about old clothes. You should not say it about your country. Instead, you should say You are welcome to...
