[quote=RAOUL,359403]Hi,
Im going to China to for 3 months, from begin of march until end of may. My plan is travelling threw the country. 
Im arriving and leaving from Beijing and after 60 days I have to be in Hongkong for a new visa (for the last 30 days). That are my only restrictions.

I read a lot on this website but still few questions remain.
This is my global plan:

Beijing: normal tourist attractions, Great Wall.
To Xi’an (maybe there some great things to see between Beijing and Xian?).
To Chengdu/Chongqing
To Kunming
To Hongkong 
To ??
To Shanghai 
Back to Beijing

Of course I wont just go to the city’s, i would rather not go there att all, I like little towns a lot more.
I found lots of information from things around chendu/kunming/beijing but there also part i dont know anything about at all.
As you can see, al lot of time a haven’t filled up at all, especially my last month after visiting hongkong.
So, I already got a lot of plans but during planning I came across some question I hope you could answer.
----
I would like to travel a part of the silk road. Should I go to Xian and then go on the silk road or should I go from Beijing to (for example)  Xining or Wuwei  and then go to Xian, following the silk road?

Another plan is going to the countryside. Leave a big city and travel for a week, to really small places (there doesn’t have to be any tourist attraction at all, just want to see how people live). But what is a beautiful part of the big country to do that in April? Maybe somewhere between Xian and Chengdu?

Do you haven any other advise of must see’s between hongkong-shanghai-beijing. Because that’s a part I cant find anything about at all. Maybe something without nature…

How bad is the situation now after the earthquake in Sichuan?
(i read most 'big' things are quitte okay now)

I know, its maybe a little bit much, or you don’t understand anything of it at all, but feel free to ask.
If you can help me in anyway I would be pleased.
