Mahjong: A Chinese Legacy

Originating during the Qing Dynasty in the 19th century, Mahjong is a traditional Chinese game of strategy, skill, and luck. Played by four, it fosters family bonding and social connection, often during special occasions like Lunar New Year. More than just a game, it’s a reflection of Chinese heritage, art, and tradition.
