What impresses Shanghai most is its prosperity. So people who want to travel here must spend a lot of money! Not exactly. The following small series will share with you the strategy of saving money in Shanghai tourism!
stay
The market prices of three-star, two-star and one-star standard rooms in Shanghai are around 350 yuan, 270 yuan and 220 yuan respectively. Some hotels 12 can get a 50% discount when they check in after noon (or 2: 00 a.m.), but there is a half-day room charge when they check out after noon (or 0: 00 a.m.).
Most hotels offer free breakfast buffet and free storage of luggage and valuables. Since most rooms are double rooms, if you have children, you can ask for an extra bed. Generally, there is a bed around 20 yuan.
Food and drink
It is recommended to have breakfast in your hotel. Many hotels offer free breakfast buffet. Usually eat near tourist attractions at noon. Try not to choose dishes marked "current price" when ordering. Ask the measuring unit. Many hotels cheat on "two" and "only"
Dinner doesn't have to be eaten in a hotel, so the cost is high. There are many food streets in the main business district of downtown Shanghai. The prices are not expensive and the service is good. The average per capita consumption is between 15- 1525 yuan.
traffic
Shanghai Inner Ring Road (central city) has a circumference of 48km, a length of 15km from east to west and a width of 8km from north to south. The outer ring road (the built-up area of the main city) has a perimeter of100km and an area of 6 10/0km2, which is larger than that of Singapore and China.
Take the distance of 10 km as an example, it takes about 20-25 minutes by taxi (as long as it is not in the downtown area with traffic jams), 25-30 yuan; It takes about 40-45 minutes by direct bus, 1-2 yuan; Turn once for about 45-60 minutes, 2-4 yuan; Subway 19 minutes, 4 yuan;
Most buses take one ticket to the end (except the lines starting with "5", "6", "8" and "9"), ordinary buses 1 yuan (mostly unmanned), and air-conditioned cars are in 2 yuan.
It can be seen that in Shanghai, subways and buses are the first choice, and the fewer taxis, the better. Of course, if three or four people travel together, the short trip is still cost-effective. The most convenient and economical way to travel to the suburbs is to take the 10 tourist bus at Shanghai Stadium or hongkou football stadium Tourist Distribution Center.
amusement
Almost all casinos have different prices at different times. For example, bowling in the evening 12- 1 field 15 yuan, and bowling in the morning 1 field 3 yuan. Another example is the red tea house, where the price is different in the afternoon and evening.
go shopping
The price of the same dress can vary greatly in different shopping malls, so we must "shop around". Generally speaking, the shops in Sichuan North Road are low in price, while those in Nanjing Road are big, with old brands and moderate consumption levels. The consumers of Huaihai Road are mainly white-collar workers and fashionable men and women.
Also in Xujiahui, Shanghai 600 and Hualian Jimaisheng (Xinluda Store) are working-class people, while the Oriental Commercial Building takes white-collar workers as the main source of tourists, and the Pacific pursues fashion. There are many specialty stores in Hong Kong-Hong Kong Exchange, and the characteristics of Luomei are entertainment, food and computer market.
The best place to buy daily necessities is the supermarket, and the most cost-effective place to buy home appliances is the chain stores in Gome and Guo Tong. It's best to go to Sichuan Road and its nearby Qipu Road professional market to buy cheap clothes. Of course, it is also good to use celebrations, festivals, exhibitions and exhibitions to find some bargains.
Attractions tickets
Student ID cards, military ID cards and ID cards for people over 70 years old can enjoy preferential treatment or free of charge in some scenic spots. Some scenic spots sell joint tickets that are quite cost-effective, such as the Grand Theatre, museums and art galleries in People's Square. Only 50 yuan is bought for joint tickets, and 30 yuan is bought for cheap music scores.
For example, if you go to Sheshan or Sun Island for a holiday, you can save a lot of money by buying a joint ticket and the corresponding membership card according to your own needs.
