After years of reading about Rochelle Krich‘s character Molly Blume playing mahjong with her sisters, I was glad I could learn how to play when I visited my family in Hong Kong last month. Mahjong is a popular game there and there are stores which specialize in mahjong sets. You choose the color of the tiles and their size and the shop assistant assembles a set for you.
For more shots Straight Out of the Camera:
After reading Amy Tan’s books I’ve wondered what the game must be like to play. It sounds complicated to me. 🙂
Wow. The tiles are neat…I would choose the dots on the top right shelf. Love the colors.
Oh I love games and mahjong sounds like it would be fun!
I know how hard majhong is…A friend of mine brought me one time in that kind of place and am totally shock. Happy SOOC Sunday.
I like all the different colors and that you get to customize your own game.
Love this shot. It’s great that so much customization is available.
I love this game. I play on the computer all the time…ususlly at 3AM when I can’t sleep.
That’s really cool that one can buy a customized set.
Chag kasher v’samei’ach to you and yours!
I wasn’t very original and got the classic green tiles since I didn’t own a set at all. It was in a different and more traditional shop but I didn’t dare take my camera out.
Chag Sameach!
I love Mahjong and I would love to have my own game other than playing on the computer.
I recognise that shop! I was there in March last year. Is it on Nathan Road? Great shot.
That’s the one! Funny to see you’ve been there too.
I like very much Mahjong games. I would like to download it . Where can I get it free?
Where is this shop and also where was the shop you brought your set from, I’m in HK for 2 weeks and would love to go.
Many thanks 🙂
