庥
U+5EA5 "庥" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character used in traditional and simplified writing, primarily meaning "shelter," "protection," or "to shield." It is composed of the radical "广" (a roof or shelter) and the phonetic component "休" (rest), suggesting the concept of a place where one is sheltered or granted repose.
