ABSTRACT
The purpose of this study is to examine the relationship between tourism and house prices (HPs) in China’s megacities, namely Beijing, Chongqing, Shanghai and Tianjin using the quantile-on-quantile method. This strategy offers the best foundation for capturing the overall structure of reliance between tourism activities and HPs. With significant variances between cities and within quantiles of each China’s megacity, the data largely demonstrate a positive link between tourism and HPs for megacities. These results may particularly have significant policy ramifications for megacities.
