Metropolises are generally most people's dreamlands to visit once in their lifetime, not only in Asia but also worldwide. However, these 5 Asia megacities prove that tourists have to prepare a large sum of money before dreaming of coming to them.
5. Seoul
These days Seoul seems to be known mostly for its lightning-fast internet connections, and its professional videogame culture, not to mention its pop stars, but there's obviously a lot more to it than that. Even though the city is still quite reasonably priced for its high technology, other things like attractions, accomodations or foods can still cost tourist quite a lot of money.
4. Hong Kong
Hong Kong used to be cheap, but there are now so many rich people and business travelers coming through here that backpackers have to really search for the bargains. Hotels can be quite expensive, though some hostels are still great value.
3. Singapore
Easily one of the world's most modern cities, Singapore can actually be quite expensive for most. The hotels here tend to be quite expensive, so it is best to save money by staying in hostels.
2. Macau
Since there are no hostels here, Macau is not a great choice for those on lower budgets. It's easier and cheaper to come on a day trip by ferry from Hong Kong to see the main sights than staying over in a hotel in Macau.
1. Tokyo
No surprises at the most expensive end of the list, and thanks to weakness in its currency, Tokyo is now similar in price to most famous and popular cities in Europe. Nevertheless, Tokyo is truly an amazing city that everyone should try to visit at least once.
