There are many different types of Mahjong, but they all require four players to play. Cantonese Mahjong uses 136 tiles, with three money-based suits: circle, bamboo and character.
Mahjong is a popular game for all age groups and walks of life. While some may treat it as a gambling activity, most take it as a chance to spend time with their relatives and friends, chatting happily around the Mahjong table. In Hong Kong, you will find that housewives, schoolboys, construction workers and retirees all enjoy playing Mahjong. Maybe your friends next door are playing a game right now!
