U+99C5 "駅" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

駅

U+99C5 "駅" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character (hanzi) and Japanese kanji that primarily means "station" or "depot," most commonly associated with railway or train stations. In Japanese, it is the standard character used for station names, as seen in terms like "東京駅" (Tokyo Station). While the character originates from Chinese, where its traditional form is "驛," the simplified Japanese form "駅" diverges from the standard simplified Chinese character used for the same concept, which is "站" (zhàn). Its structure combines the "馬" (horse) radical on the left, hinting at its historical connection to relay stations for horse-drawn transport, with a phonetic component on the right indicating its pronunciation.
