Begin with a 60-minute Mahjong lesson. Learn the fundamentals of Chinese Mahjong, from recognizing tiles and understanding characters to mastering basic strategies of Guangdong rules. Discover the fascinating history and cultural significance behind this centuries-old “national treasure,” once enjoyed by scholars and emperors.

Following the lesson, put your skills into practice during a 2–3 hour friendly Mahjong game session. As you play and practice your skills, hear engaging stories behind the game, including how it traveled along the Ancient Tea Horse Road, its role in social life, and why it remains a cultural cornerstone today.

Throughout your Mahjong journey, savor 10 iconic Chinese teas served in an elegant setting. The selection includes Tiěguānyīn (Iron Goddess Oolong), Dàhóngpáo (Big Red Robe Rock Tea), Jīnjùnméi (Golden Eyebrow Black Tea), High-Mountain Green Tea, and Fènghuáng Dāncōng (Phoenix Single Bush Oolong), etc.

Each tea is thoughtfully paired with the rhythm of the game, while the guide explains the nuances of tea culture, from brewing techniques and regional origins to philosophical connections with Mahjong. In China, tea and Mahjong have long been intertwined as part of a slower, social way of life.
