  • Budget check: what did your China trip actually cost?

    Posted by iTravelChina on 2026年9月30日 at pm7:06

    Not what the blogs say — what you actually spent. Total, number of days, and roughly where it went.

    I will compile the answers into a real budget guide, because the existing ones are either wildly out of date or assume you are staying in five-star hotels.

    For reference, a rough middle ground per person per day excluding international flights:

    • Budget (hostels, street food, public transport): CNY 300 to 450
    • Mid-range (3-star hotels, restaurants, some taxis): CNY 700 to 1,100
    • Comfortable (4 to 5 star, first-class rail): CNY 1,500 and up

    Post your real numbers below — I will credit everyone whose figures make it into the guide.
