These light boxes were placed along a small road and have attracted the interest of many passersby.
There are more than ten painted Mahjong light boxes which represent Mahjong tiles, such as "Dongfeng", "Yiwan" and "Yitong". These Light Boxes are all located in front of some two-storey houses.
According to staff in the sales department of the "Jiupai Real Estate Development Company, Ltd.", which constructed these houses, the Majhong Light boxes were set aside to be used as special house numbers.
