What's the difference between Japanese chess board and China chess board?

1, the plane size of the chessboard is different: the diameter of the Japanese chessboard is relatively uniform, basically about 22mm, which is equivalent to the medium size of the China chessboard, and the Japanese chessboard is slightly smaller than the China chessboard; China chessboard is 2-3cm bigger than Japanese chessboard, which is convenient for playing large Weiqi.

2. The shapes of chess pieces are different: due to their usual kneeling habits, Japan and South Korea mostly use chess piers, and the chess pieces use double-sided drums. Looking down from above, the chess pieces have a three-dimensional effect; China uses a chessboard, most of which are sitting, so the pieces are flat-bottomed.

3. Do you have feet? Those with feet are called chess piers, and those without feet are called chessboards. Chinese and Japanese chessboards are the same, but the chess pieces are slightly different-China's single-sided drum and Japan's double-sided drum.

Extended data:

There are some subtle differences between Japanese Weiqi and China Weiqi, which also reflects the characteristics of China Weiqi in the Tang Dynasty, such as black chess. Since the Ming and Qing Dynasties, the habit of China Weiqi was white immortals, but judging from the chess score in "Forget Worry and Yuefu", Weiqi in the Tang and Song Dynasties was dominated by black immortals. Also, the word "mu" should not be invented by the Japanese, but also found in China's ancient books.

In Huan Tan's "New Theory", when it comes to Go, it is said that "if you get down, you will keep the corner and tend to be eye-catching" (the eye is also synonymous); There is a saying in Liang Wudi's "Qi Wei Fu" that "the square eye is not inclined and the straight road is not curved". In Chinese, the word "eye" is often used to represent a square, such as "the outline is upturned". Nowadays, in spoken English, it is often customary to refer to numbers as numbers, with points as numbers and points as points.

In addition, wood, like Dao and Lu, was an ancient military unit in China. Mu is the smallest military unit, and the so-called leader in the ancient army is the head of this unit. Go imitates war. Borrowing in the name of the army is normal. Before the Tang dynasty, knives were widely used; After the Song Dynasty, land was widely used; During the Tang Dynasty, Mu and Ping were often used. Japanese Go was introduced from the Tang Dynasty; Therefore, Lu, which was popular in China after the Song Dynasty, is not needed.

In addition, we should be able to notice that the writing of chess in Dunhuang is "Qi", while that in Song Dynasty is "Qi" and that in modern times is "Qi". The use of "Qi" in Japan shows the characteristics of its introduction.
