Japanese Castle

The Japanese Castle icon represents a traditional Japanese castle, which is a type of fortified structure that was built in Japan during the country's feudal era. Japanese castles are known for their distinctive architecture and are often associated with Japanese history and culture.

In real-world applications, this icon may appear on travel websites, such as Japan National Tourism Organization, to promote tourism and cultural heritage. It may also be used in educational materials, such as history textbooks or cultural guides, to illustrate Japan's rich cultural heritage.

From a UX perspective, the Japanese Castle icon communicates a sense of history, culture, and tradition to users. It helps users quickly identify and navigate to content related to Japanese culture and history.

Sign in (it's free), then open Get icon, Install with shadcn CLI, and pick your package manager to copy the command. It adds JapaneseCastleIcon to components/icons/twemoji-japanese-castle.tsx: one file, a size prop (24 by default) and every SVG prop, with no icon package.

Copy it as React (from Get icon, or the Code section): a typed JapaneseCastleIcon component you paste into your project, with no package to install. Only the icons you import reach your bundle. It works in Next.js and any React app.

Open Get icon, then Copy as code, and pick Vue, Svelte, Angular, Solid or Preact; the Code section shows each one too. Every version is one self-contained component with the SVG inside, and SVG and data URL copies are there for plain HTML and CSS.
