australian citizen on holiday in irelandneeding a chinese visa

Question

My husband and I are visiting Ireland from Australia for a period of 5 months.  On our return journey to Australia we are visiting Beijing.  We have our accommodation booked.  We applied for our Chinese ones in Australia before we left but were told that they couldn't issue our ones 6 months before we were due in Beijing.As we are living in Ireland at the moment as tourists can we apply for ours in Ireland.

Hi, may I know how long will you stay in Beijing? because if you make this trip a transit, you can stay in Beijing without visa for a stay of 3 days (72 hour free transit). But if you want to stay longer, you have to apply for a tourist L in advance. As I know, it is very difficult to apply for it in a third country if you are not a resident.
