Unicode Version 17.0
澳
U+6FB3 "澳" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character composed of the water radical on the left and a phonetic component on the right, primarily meaning "bay" or "inlet" and serving as a shorthand reference for Australia in modern Chinese. It is notably used in the official name of Macau, written as 澳門 (Àomén), where it originally referred to a sheltered harbor. The character appears in various contexts related to geography and maritime terms, such as 澳洲 (Àozhōu, Australia) and 港澳 (Gǎng'ào, Hong Kong and Macau). In historical texts, it also conveyed the idea of a deep, navigable body of water or a place where ships could anchor.
