Xiangqi became popular in China during the Tang Dynasty (618-907 AD). The game was often played in the imperial court, and it was even used as a training tool for military strategists.
Xiangqi was introduced to Japan in the 9th century AD, and it quickly became popular there. The game is also played in Korea, Vietnam, and other parts of Asia.
