Chengdu offers currency exchange at downtown banks like BOC and CCB (Tianfu Square, Chunxi Road) with competitive rates for USD, EUR, JPY. Airport counters (Shuangliu) provide 24/7 service but less favorable rates. ATMs at major banks (BOC, ICBC) accept international cards; check for UnionPay. Avoid unlicensed vendors. Use bank apps, compare rates online, and avoid airports for large swaps. Plan ahead for better deals on Chengdu’s attractions.
