“🏯” meaning: Japanese castle, fortress Emoji

This emoji 🏯 is a Japanese castle, a type of fortified residence that was built by the feudal lords of Japan from the 15th to the 17th centuries. The emoji shows a white castle with a tiled roof, curved eaves, and multiple stories.

The emoji is based on the Himeji Castle, one of the most famous and well-preserved castles in Japan. Japanese castles were designed to protect the daimyo (feudal lords) and their samurai (warriors) from enemy attacks. They were often located on hills or mountains⛰, and surrounded by walls, gates, towers, and moats. Japanese castles were not only military fortifications, but also symbols of power and prestige.

🏯 can be used to express interest in Japanese history, culture, or architecture. It can also be used to indicate that someone is visiting or traveling to Japan, or that they are watching a movie or reading a book about Japan architecture.

In addition, this emoji can also represent other buildings that have a similar style, such as some of the classical buildings in China.
