An embassy is in the capital of the nation where it is. It's where the ambassador is assigned. A consulate performs embassy-like services in cities that aren't the nation's capital.

@DunningKruger so there is only one embassy but there can be many consulates?

@octoberthesixth Yes.
According to a Google search
An embassy is the primary diplomatic mission located in a foreign capital, handling high-level political, economic, and security relations, while a consulate is a smaller, regional office located in major cities focused on assisting citizens (passports, emergencies) and issuing visas. There is only one embassy, but multiple consulates can exist in a country.
