The Chinese Chess (Xiangqi) is a strategy board game and is in the same family as western (international) chess. Besides China, Xiangqi is a very popular game also in Vietnam. The rules are quite similar to the western version, and the goal is the same: capture the king.

Around the streets you will often see groups of men concentrated playing this board game. A curious fact is that i've never seen any woman playing that... perhaps it's a man's game.
