==Japanese tiles==

Japanese mahojng sets usually come with 144 tiles in a case.  While 136 of the tile are used, the extra tiles are four red five [[dora]] tiles: one for manzu and souzu, and two for pinzu.  To use these tiles, regular five tiles are switched with the red dora.  The remaining four tile are four flower tiles, which are not used at all.

Typically, Japanese tiles are individually about the size 16 mm x 19 mm x 26 mm (WLH).  Like most mahjong tile sets, these tiles are capable of standing on their own.
