[[Image:Dora and Wanpai.jpg|thumb|350px|Dead wall showing 2-pin as the dora indicator.]]'''Dora''' {{kana|ドラ}} is a feature to the game, where possession of specific tiles instantly grants the hand 1 han per tile.  Nevertheless, hands still require at least one [[yaku]] in order to score, regardless of the number of dora in the hand.  At the start of every hand, 14 tiles are set aside as the wanpai, or dead wall tiles.  Furthermore, additional dora may be revealed through the use of '''uradora''' and/or '''kandora'''.

In terms of value, dora are counted by measure of [[han]].  However, dora functions as a "bonus value", where the hand simply cannot just possess dora in order to qualify as a winning hand.  The hand still requires '''at least one yaku'''.  In other words, dora is not a replacement for the yaku requirement.
