U+57FC "埼" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
埼
U+57FC "埼" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that primarily refers to a cape or a promontory, a point of land projecting into a body of water, and is most famously used in the name of Saitama Prefecture in Japan, where it appears in the kanji spelling of Saitama (さいたま). This character combines the earth radical 土 (tsuchi) with the phonetic component 奇 (ki), and while it is less common in modern Chinese usage, it remains an essential and recognizable part of Japanese place naming and geography.
