Have heard of Mahjong? The extremely popular boardgame across China using tiles resembling strange dominoes?
The original name of the game is written 麻雀, pronounced máquè in Mandarin which means “sparrow”, alluding to the noise made by the tiles colliding. Now it is most commonly referred to as 麻将, májiàng.或说锦城君未闻，但使麻将出川门。 麻将这个东西，真的是四川人的真爱啊。
If there's anyone who loves playing Mahjong, it's the Sichuanese. They will play in the street, at home, in the park, in the rivers, at weddings, during Spring Festival, even at their family funerals. Anytime, anywhere - if four people together find they have spare time, then there's an opportunity to play Mahjong. 四川人可以在街上打，屋头打，水头打，过节打，过年打，丧火都在打.........还能说啥子- - （People sure love Majiang！）
What has everyone hooked? Come and find out...!!!
Do you know how to play?! If not, on Saturday 10th June, from 3:30pm - 6:00pm, LAOWAI HERE and Work+ are hosting an epic Mahjong Class!
