I understand your point of view but I don't know, in advance, where I will go.
That's also my preferred travel style, but, you have to be aware that on some routes you need to book train tickets in advance, which is quite an incovenience if you travel with a loose itinerary and no precise time schedule.
On many routes there are also busses as a second option.
Others on here, with recent experience, might help with some practical suggestions on this.
I will see.
First of all, my visa, the bookings and my itinerary.
It's always possible to use a local travel agency and check with it, when I will be there, which train I can use.
Buses are fine for me too.
I'm ready with that.
Thanks.

I'm coming back from the Chinese Visa Centre with my touirist visa.
I've booked by blocks in five different places and I will cancel few of them now.
Everything was fine except my name was missing for few booking and finally, they used only one accommodation (three nights) with my name well indicated.
Thanks for your help and advices.

I'm coming back from my trip two days ago. Doable without a smartphone and without booking your accommodations in advance. I was around a part of Yunnan, on my own, between the 9th of May and the 6th of June.

Good to hear all went well. Thanks for the feedback.
Personally, I've never had any issues with Chinese regulations and visas, having visited the country over different periods of time.
I will going back there.
Yunnan or other parts in the Southwest of the country.
Very interesting.
