Yamen
A yamen (traditional Chinese: 衙門; simplified Chinese: 衙门; pinyin: yámén; IPA: [já.mə́n]) was the administrative office or residence of a local bureaucrat or mandarin in imperial China, Korea, and Vietnam. A yamen can also be any governmental office or body headed by a mandarin, at any level of government: the offices of one of the Six Ministries is a yamen, but so is a prefectural magistracy. The term has been widely used in China for centuries, but appeared in English during the Qing dynasty.
