Meituan.com offers deals of the day by selling vouchers on local services and entertainment, which is a lot cheaper than paying for cash
However, you are required to have alipay for making the payment
I usually asked the local or hotel staff to help me paying the vouchers
voucher for $9.9 and pay for more than $20 if you didn't use Meituan
Coffee Time got a few branch in Xian and you may use one of the selected drink
wifi, nice environment (3/F in total)
but A/C is...
(quite common in Xian, A/C for more than 26 degrees)
btw I rmb I fell down when I chasing the bus hahah
I decided to get on the bus even though everyone looking at me
(the following day of climbing Mount Hua)
using meituan is only $58 for 7 hours
thou sometimes their A/C is broken...
with some snacks and food
while it took more than $100 for 5 hours without meituan
I would say it is quite difficult for non-local to survive in China
Sometimes we took taxi, is like 5-10 times more expensive than they ordered in app
