Britain's online Starling Bank ranked 35 major urban destinations worldwide for travel affordability, analyzing hotel rates, food costs, transit fares and attractions prices. Here's a look at the top and bottom five cities.

capital is popular with backpackers for a reason. Stays can total just $50.80 day if you pinch your pennies. Free attractions include the Batu Caves, one of the most popular Hindu shrines to be found outside India, and the Bukit Bintang shopping and entertainment district. Dinner or lunch will run you about $11 a pop.. Top attractions in Beijing cost just about $8 on average and there's plenty to see and do.

Down Under, the Sydney Harbour Bridge and Bondi Beach can both be accessed free of charge. Santiago's views of the surrounding Andes Mountains are free, as are strolls through Plaza de Armas square and climbs up San Cristobal and Santa Lucia hills. In Buenos Aires, tango your way through the streets of the colorful La Boca district or explore the alternately creepy and stunning confines of La Recoleta Cemetery — all for nothing.

We're still in the States for the next-biggest cash drain: Los Angeles. A day in La La Land will set you back about $217. Starling's data revealed an average per night rate of $112.64 for a hotel bed in the City of Angels. Peering up at the Hollywood Sign or inspecting stars of the Hollywood Walk of Fame remain free, however.
