Cultural introduction
Mahjong, originating from China during the Qing dynasty, is a game deeply entrenched in cultural tradition and symbolism. Its name, meaning “sparrow” in Chinese, reflects its early association with the chirping of birds. Over the centuries, Mahjong has evolved into a beloved pastime enjoyed by millions worldwide. Its intricately designed tiles, adorned with symbols from Chinese mythology and daily life, hold deep cultural significance. Mahjong is not just a game of skill and strategy; it is a reflection of social dynamics and familial traditions. Played during festivals, family gatherings, and special occasions, Mahjong serves as a means of bonding and socialising among friends and relatives. Beyond entertainment, Mahjong embodies the values of etiquette, humility, and respect for tradition.
