U+5EC7 "廇" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+5EC7 "廇" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character (hanzi) used in traditional and historical texts, classified under the Kangxi radical 53 (广, meaning "shelter" or "roof"). Its primary meaning relates to a "hall" or "palace," often specifically denoting a central or main building in a compound, and is occasionally used in classical literature to describe an official building or a grand chamber. In modern standard Chinese, this character is rarely used in everyday language, appearing instead in ancient contexts or specialized vocabulary such as place names or formal architectural terms. Not to be confused with similar-looking characters, "廇" carries a specific semantic nuance of a covered or protected space, and its pronunciation in Mandarin is typically "liù" (with a falling tone).
