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
At the budget tier of $45 a day, most spending goes toward basic lodging, cheap local meals, and public transport, which keeps a full week to about $315. The mid-range tier of $110 a day, totaling $770 over a week, adds more comfortable hotel rooms, sit-down restaurant meals, and more frequent taxi or ride-hailing use. The luxury tier of $235 a day, or $1,645 for a week, reflects higher-end hotels, private transport, and less concern about menu prices.
The cheapest and quietest period to visit falls in January, November, and December, when both crowds and typical costs tend to ease compared with the busy months from April through September. All figures above are estimates based on typical spending patterns rather than fixed prices, and actual costs will vary by choice of lodging, season, and personal spending habits.
Cheapest months by climate demand: Jan, Nov and Dec.
