How this is calculated
A US baseline of 90, 210 and 450 USD a day for the three tiers is multiplied by the price level of China (0.472567178053175, World Bank 2025) and by a city-size factor of 1.1, then rounded to the nearest 5 dollars. Local amounts use the World Bank exchange rate of 7.18984737402171 CNY to the dollar, rounded to two significant digits.
These are modeled estimates, not quoted prices. Read the full formula on the methodology page.

Where the money goes
Across all three tiers, the biggest differences come from lodging and dining choices rather than transport, which stays cheap at every level. A budget day near $45 covers basic lodging, simple meals, and local transit, a mid-range day near $110 allows for better rooms and restaurant meals, and a luxury day near $235 adds more comfort and flexibility throughout, with the same pattern holding over a full week at $315, $770, and $1,645.
The lowest overall costs line up with the off season months of February, July, and August, when demand drops and prices tend to soften along with it. All figures here, including the daily and weekly tiers and the individual cost items, are estimates meant to give a realistic range rather than fixed prices you will find everywhere.
Cheapest months by climate demand: Feb, Jul and Aug.
