The densely populated bayside capital of the Philippines is among the most expensive cities in the world. Even though the cost of living in the city is cheaper compared to the rest of the world, because of taxes, tariffs, and various economic factors, you’ll find many purchases in Manila a lot costlier than they are normally priced elsewhere. The prices of high-end products, such as watches, handbags, jewelry, and men’s suits, are in the top quartile of expensive cities. Fine wine and whiskey are also considerably more expensive. However, mainly because of the competitive labor costs the city offers, services and intangibles are relatively more affordable compared to other cities and countries. Wellness and fitness services, beauty services, legal consultation, LASIK surgery, and even wedding events are cheaper. Fine dining and hotel suites are also a fraction of the cost compared to the most expensive city in the list.
