Further Details

An introduction to the delights of Mah Jong.

‘Come to the square centre of the world

Where the wall keeps the ghosts at a distance

Where the winds gather

Where the dragons meet

And where flowers blossom on the roof top’

Open a Mah Jong box and you are faced with 144 tiles – Bamboos, Circles, Characters, Winds, Dragons, Flowers. This looks complicated. But don’t be deterred. The ancient and inscrutable Chinese developed this game of luck, though a knowledge of how to develop your ‘hand’ of tiles is needed. If you might be itching to get your fingers on these tactile tiles and think this an amusing way of spending your Wednesday mornings, please do get in touch.
