No.

China is a big place so maybe about 416 (four hundred and sixteen) weeks of constant travel.

I suggest choosing a few of the places you'd really like to see then covering it in detail. It's unlikely you'd ever be issued a visa that would allow you to cover even most of China unless you special connections. But then again, if you had special connections you probably wouldn't be posting here yeah? :thumbup1:

To Travel
 

China IS a big place. If you want to do it well, and have the money (and all your travel visas) take at LEAST 6 months. CrazyCarl's idea of choosing a few good spots and doing them well, is a good one!
Using trains (and buses when desperate) will be good for travel around the country. Most train stations now have at least one person who can speak passable English. One thing they have here is a SERIOUSLY extensive rail system. Avoid taxis except when going short distances in town or they'll charge you an arm and a leg! Hope your trip is good!

Can i just check what the visa restrictions are for a tourist when traveling around china. Other than Tibet are there any other provinces that require special permits?

The only other province which might require a permit is XinJiang. together though, Tibet (Tibetan Regions) and Xinjian cover a decent percentage of China's land mass and contain a huge portion of it's amazing scenery.

That said, you can get into these regions with a tour group and don't be surprised if they hold your visa for the duration of the trip. Xinjiang may not need any permits whatsoever but you're likely to run into "regulations" when getting a hotel or other place to stay.
