Commonly known as ‘Chinese Chess’ this is a strategy board game for two players.

The game represents a battle between two armies and is the most popular board game in China.  One source says that its invention goes back over two thousand years to the winter of 204-203 B.C. Other sources date the games introduction to the much later Tang dynasty that ruled China from 618-907 A.D.

Whatever the date of its beginning the game is still highly popular today and played all over China, Hong Kong and anywhere there is a Chinese community.

Here, an onlooker enjoys the game as two of his friends partake of it, perhaps in a private garden or a public park somewhere in the ‘Streets of Old Hong Kong’.
