You can also send it back to an agent in the US, such as US-China Chamber of Commerce to do the visa as long as your passport shows that you are not inside China, i.e., exit stamps.
Using a reliable agent will eliminate a lot of uncertainties, and you do not need to take days off. Also, in theory, you are supposed to get the visa from a Consulate in the country which you come from though US citizens do get visas outside the US. However, you need to take the shipping cost into consideration.
This could cost between US$60 and US$100.
The Chinese Emabassy in the UK site refers visa applications to the Chinese Visa Application Service Center. According to this site, they have locations in London, Manchester, Stockholm, Gothenburg, Copenhagen, The Hague, Brussels, Paris, Marseilles, Milan, Rome and Madrid.
The terms of their online application state that applicants must be a citizen or resident of the country where the application is made.
ordinary passport holders who are UK citizens and citizens of other
countries possessing UK permanent residence or work permits
However, you may be able to make an application in person at one of these locations or at a Chinese embassy or consulate in Europe. As others have reported success doing this.
At the consulate in Goteborg, Sweden all we had tp produce were our
passports, the completed application form with the passport sized pics
and the money for the visa. In fact it all went very smoothly.
