I've already been to Hong Kong, Shanghai, Guilin/Yangshuo, Yunnan
(Kunming, Dali, Lijiang etc.). Planning to visit Beijing, Xian and
Lhasa. What are the other highlights ? I'm primarily interested in
photographing scenic places (history, nature, culture).

Will one day be sufficient for Xian ?

Are plane/helicopter round-flights available in Lhasa ?

How many days would it take to do Lhasa - Chengdu overland ?

One day is enough if you are planning so see just the Terracotta Army. We
stayed there 3 days in early August, and we didn't get bored...
I would advise you to stay 2 days at least.
Have a good trip
