I currently have a visa to travel to China that was issued in Switzerland. But I've realized that I may be better off starting (and ending) my journey in the UK.

Is this something that is allowed, or is there a need to travel from the country of visa issue?

Note that this question has already been asked regarding a Schengen visa. But since my question is for a China visa, I thought that it isn't an exact duplicate.

In general no country cares where you start your journey from.

Exceptions to this principle are very rare - for example if you were claiming to be escaping from the oppressive regime of country X but were transiting through country X.
