How it's used

Historical sites in Hong Kong often feature these structures, which are now frequently repurposed or sealed off for safety. While the term is literal, it carries a strong association with the city's wartime history during the Japanese occupation. You will rarely hear it used in a modern context unless discussing architecture, urban exploration, or local heritage.
