where is a poor tour suitable for? Domestic
Chengdu
This is a city that you don't want to leave when you come. It has all the elements that people love. Food, beautiful scenery, beautiful women, especially every corner of the city, show its unique leisure, prosperity and free and easy characteristics.
Travel Tips
Jinli and Kuanzhai Lane in Chengdu are places where snacks are concentrated. But as long as you are from Chengdu or a foreigner who is familiar with Chengdu, you will be told that the snacks in these two places are expensive and not authentic.
In Chengdu, you can eat delicious food for 3 yuan, and there are flying museums everywhere. Don't dislike it just because its decoration is not exquisite. You know, this is the most authentic taste of Chengdu.
As for the scenic spots, Chunxi Road, Jinli, Kuanzhai Lane and other famous scenic spots are all free, and special ear plucking and massage can be done for tens of dollars.
The cheapest place in Chengdu is transportation. Public transportation covers almost every scenic spot in Chengdu. Buses are basically in 2 yuan, and the starting price of subway is 2 yuan/person. If you stay for a long time, you can also consider doing a "Tianfu Pass Card".
for the convenience of tourists, many scenic spots have also opened through trains. You can take a free through train to the scenic spot as long as you buy both the scenic spot tickets and the explanation service coupons.
in terms of accommodation, the price in Chengdu is similar to that in other cities. There are comfortable and clean express hotels, distinctive B&B inns, and economical and interesting youth hostels, with prices ranging from several hundred to several tens of yuan.
Xiamen
Xiamen is a city suitable for wandering aimlessly. Leisure, handicrafts, snacks, meeting a cat and dog, and slow life are the best travel experiences here.
Travel Tips
The impression of Xiamen has always had a petty bourgeoisie sentiment, which was scared by the high consumption written in many raiders. In fact, Xiamen is also a very suitable city for poor travel. The average price of many snacks does not exceed that of 15 yuan, and most of the attractions in online celebrities are free.
There are many online celebrity restaurants in Xiamen. Instead of waiting in a long line to eat less authentic food, it is better to look for ancient snacks in those old streets and alleys. They not only taste authentic, but also are cheap. Basically, the unit price is within 3~15 yuan.
in terms of transportation, if you are on the island, it is convenient to go anywhere. First, the place is small; Secondly, there are many means of transportation to choose from.
You can choose to take Xiamen's famous Metro Line 1 and spend 2-7 yuan. You can take the subway to see the sea or take the bus. Most of the direct flights on the island are only in 1 yuan, and those leaving the country are around 2 yuan.
If you want to go to Jimei, Tongan and Qianpu, it is more convenient to take the air express, and the whole journey costs only 4 yuan. If the distance is not too far, it is also a good choice to enjoy cycling. One or two dollars can solve the taxi fare of several kilometers, which is very cost-effective.
If you want to stay, try to choose between the ferry and Xiamen University Railway Station. It's convenient to go anywhere, but accommodation in Xiamen is a little more expensive, and the price of homestays is generally between 3 and 55 yuan. If you don't want to spend too much, you can choose youth travel.
Beijing
Beijing is a city where tradition and modernity, antiquity and fashion are perfectly integrated, but don't think that just because it is an imperial city, you must spend a lot of money. After all, you are only here to travel, not to live here.
Travel Tips
If you want to stay, youth hostels and express hotels are good and economical choices. Youth hostels don't cost 1 yuan a night.
how about eating? If you want to have a good meal, you must be familiar with group buying. Almost all famous restaurants in Beijing can be bought by group purchase.
If you want to eat Beijing snacks, you can go to Xidan and Taoran. These places are quite distinctive, and there are many snack bars. 15 yuan is probably enough. There are pancakes in hutong and roadside. You can buy one for 4 or 5 yuan.
But in fact, food and accommodation are not the point of saving money in Beijing. Attractions and transportation
Beijing has a convenient transportation network and can reach all major attractions, including suburbs. The bus starts from 2 yuan, and the cost is calculated according to the distance. If you use the municipal bus card, you will get a 5% discount.

public transportation is the main way to travel in the city, and the fare is 1-2 yuan. However, many scenic spots are close and can be reached within walking distance, so the transportation cost is not high.
Hongcun
This ancient town hidden in a house in Taohuayuan is famous at home and abroad for an Oscar-winning film Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, but more people know it because of its reputation as a village in Chinese painting.
Travel Tips
Hongcun is not expensive, and accommodation and ticket fees are the main expenses for visiting here. You can take a coach from Huangshan Bus Terminal to Hongcun every hour, and the fare is around 2 yuan.
the village is not large enough for cars to enter. Therefore, visiting the ancient town is the best way, and you don't have to ride a bike. You can rent a bicycle at the entrance of the village or take a tricycle to the surrounding scenic spots.

Hongcun's commercial consumption is not much, and accommodation is the bulk of consumption. It is recommended to live in the village, so that you can go to Tachuan to play, and then you don't have to buy more tickets to enter and leave Hongcun.
Accommodation in the village is generally in 8-15 yuan, but more people will go on holidays and when autumn leaves are red, and the house price will go up.
there is no money limit in traveling, as long as you have a heart to go out. Although a little money will make you feel more comfortable on the trip, poor travel will make people understand the true meaning of travel better.
You always say that poverty limits our imagination, so don't let poverty limit our vision and pace. These five places will definitely make you have fun without money!
How to save money for poor travel
Try to put some snacks such as bread, water and compressed biscuits in your suitcase before you leave, so that you can put a mat on it before you find a suitable restaurant. (Because the food and water in the scenic spots are very expensive) You can go farther away and find some small restaurants or local snacks to eat, and you can also save some money.
if you stay, you can choose a small hotel in a family homestay, or you can bring your own tent and stay outside for one night. Many people like to buy things with local characteristics when traveling. Bian Xiao believes that special products can be bought appropriately, but special things should be bought as little as possible or not. Just look around, because many people complain to Bian Xiao that they can't help but want to buy something new and interesting when they are traveling. After buying it, they found it was still there. They didn't touch it. What a waste. If you really want to buy some local specialties, I suggest you choose to buy them in a larger local supermarket. First, the product quality can be guaranteed, and second, the price should be reasonable.
If you want to go to some famous scenic spots, you can order tickets online. Now the Meituan can save some money. Try not to go to any scenic spots you don't particularly want to go to, which can save time and some money. When traveling, try to take the local subway or bus, which saves worry and money. If you don't know the route, you can find it online.
Of course, you can also take part in some group tours or go out with friends. Traveling with a group or going out with friends is really a cheaper way.
