So we had to get visas. This was my first time getting a visa for China, and as any well travelled Indian knows, we have stood in many lines and filled in multiple forms in triplicate to get that elusive visa.
I arrived at the front door of the China consulate where I was asked to take a #. My # was A130. There were about 40 people in the room. So I thought, hmm might take a while. Within 30sec my # was called and I was asked to come to counter 9. There the lady took just 3 things, my application form, 1 photo and passport. Thats it. She then handed me a receipt and said "pick up on Monday, OK?".
I was out of there in under 5 mins.
I'm quite amazed at their efficiency... looking forward to the rest of China!
best,
Vinay
