Unicode Version 18.0
Source: Browser Default
U+961B "阛" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a rarely used Chinese character that historically refers to a market or a walled enclosure, often appearing in classical texts as a variant or refined form of related characters for a city gate or commercial district. It belongs to the radical "门" (door) and is composed of strokes suggesting an encircled space, but it is not commonly found in modern Chinese writing or everyday vocabulary. Its primary significance lies in its inclusion in the Unicode standard to preserve historical and literary uses, particularly in ancient documents where it describes bustling marketplaces or urban boundaries.
