As Lions, we are dedicated to service — but we also cherish the moments when we can simply gather, relax, and enjoy each other’s company. That’s why the Palolo Lions Club invites all fellow Lions to join us for a fun and engaging Mahjong Workshop!
Whether you’re brand new to the game or just a bit rusty, this workshop is a great way to learn, laugh, and connect.
🎲 Got your own Mahjong set? Please bring it along to help increase the number of active players.
Mahjong is a tile-based game that originated in China during the mid-1800s, likely evolving from earlier card games such as Madiao. It gained popularity, especially in urban centers, before spreading internationally in the early 1920s. The global spread of Mahjong is linked to historical factors like China’s opening to the West, the Treaty of Nanking, and the introduction of Mahjong sets to the United States.
Today, Mahjong is played around the world in various forms, each with its own rules and regional variations, reflecting the game’s cultural adaptation and ongoing evolution.
