Shanghai: Mahjong Workshop with Market Tour & Tea Tasting｜China

Begin your experience by meeting your guide at a Metro Station. Head to a traditional Shanghai wet market and see where locals buy tea leaves, mahjong snacks (sunflower seeds, peanuts, dried tofu), and daily goods. Learn how the market connects to lòngtáng lifestyle.

Next, sit down with a cup of traditional Shanghai tea (Longjing or Biluochun). Hear stories of lòngtáng life, the history of mahjong in Shanghai, and the unwritten rules of playing with locals.

Then, learn tile recognition, basic rules, scoring, and local expressions. Play guided practice rounds with your group, with tips and feedback from your instructor.
