Common questions about Mahjong in Philadelphia

How much do mahjong classes cost in Philadelphia?

Across the 5 mahjong listings in Philadelphia, prices run from $10 to $40. Every figure is computed from the listings themselves, not estimated.

Which style of mahjong is taught?

Listings state the style where the organizer publishes it — American mahjong (National Mah Jongg League rules) is the most common in the US, with Hong Kong and Japanese Riichi groups in some cities. Check the class detail page before booking.
