[[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.  However, hands still require at least one [[yaku]] in order to score, regardless of the number of dora in the hand.  So, the possession of dora is best considered as a bonus.

At the beginning of every hand, fourteen tiles are set aside as the wanpai, or dead wall tiles.  The dora is marked by the tile after the flipped tile.  Additional dora may be revealed through the use of '''uradora''' and/or '''kandora'''.  Finally, additional tiles underneath any revealed dora may also mark more dora as an added benefit for hands won with [[riichi]].
