A two-week China trip can move beyond the classic spine, but it still needs discipline: group nearby cities, protect rest days, and choose only the scenery or food regions that change the trip.
A ten-day China route gives overseas visitors enough room for Beijing, Xi'an, Shanghai, and one carefully chosen scenery or food extension without turning every other day into a transfer.
A seven-day route must be honest about travel time. Keep it to Beijing, Xi'an, and Shanghai, with one major anchor per day and sensible rail or flight transitions.
