Guangzhou: Mahjong Workshop with Market Visit and Tea｜China

Begin your experience by meeting your guide at the Jiangsu Road Metro Station. Head to a traditional Guangzhou wet market and see where locals buy tea leaves, dim sum ingredients, and mahjong snacks. Learn how the market connects to Guangzhou's tea house culture.

Next, sit down with a cup of traditional Cantonese tea, such as Tieguanyin or Chrysanthemum tea. Listen as your guide shares stories of tea house life, the history of mahjong in Guangzhou, and the famous "horse betting" rule.

Then, learn tile recognition, including flower tiles, Guangzhou-style rules, basic scoring, and how "horses" work. Play guided practice rounds with your group, with tips and feedback from your instructor.
