Source: Browser Default
U+697C "楼" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character primarily meaning "building" or "tower," often referring to multi-story structures such as apartments, office towers, or historical pavilions. Its simplified form is commonly used in modern Mandarin, while the traditional counterpart is "樓." The character appears in words like "大楼" (dàlóu, meaning "big building") and "楼梯" (lóutī, meaning "staircase"), and it is also found in place names and architectural contexts across East Asia. This ideograph reflects the cultural emphasis on vertical construction in Chinese cities and classical poetry, where it often evokes imagery of elevated spaces for viewing scenes or moon gazing.
