According to a MasterCard survey last year tourists spent US$258 per day in Seoul, US$255 in Singapore and US$262 in Beijing.
In Bali tourists often spend around US$125, according to the Indonesian central bank.
In July the 2016 TripIndex report by TripAdvisor named Hanoi the least expensive among 20 favourite cities surveyed for the third year in a row. It beat Bangkok and Mumbai.
