Founded in 2013, Shan Jiao Hang began with a simple original intention to solve the challenges of promoting Shogi, which led to the launch of an online store selling imported Shogi equipment. As the community of Shogi players grew, we faced further challenges, such as a lack of sufficient Chinese-language instructional resources, a shortage of suitable venues for playing, and a lack of like-minded players to meet up with and play at any time (although the number of players had increased significantly, it was still difficult to match for offline games spontaneously). Consequently, we expanded our scope to include the compilation of Shogi textbooks and instructional materials, as well as the development of Shogi venues. In 2017, we developed dozens of board game venues for playing Shogi, and established numerous Shogi clubs during our promotional efforts. In 2020, we further established the Japan Shogi Hall. However, due to the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic in Taiwan, after serious discussions, the decision was made to temporarily close it.
