逃げ場・逃場|にげばnigeba[3]odaka (tail-high)

1. noun(place of) refuge; escape; exit; way out; shelter; hiding place
   気きがつくと逃げ場にげばはどこにもなかった。↗

   Now that I notice it, I have nowhere to run.

• Synonym隠れ家かくれがNeutralA hidden dwelling or base with a sense of secrecy — also used to advertise tucked-away little shops and cafés. 「逃げ場」 is about somewhere to flee to.
• SynonymサンクチュアリNeutralA loanword for a sanctuary or protected area, such as a wildlife sanctuary; it stresses safety and protection rather than escape.
• Synonym駆け込み寺かけこみでらNeutralOriginally a temple sheltering women who fled there; now a colloquial metaphor for a place to turn to for help, as in 「弱者の駆け込み寺」, more than a way out like 「逃げ場」.
• Synonym避難所ひなんじょNeutralThe usual word for a disaster evacuation shelter — an official facility such as a school gymnasium, not a figurative way out.
• Synonym隠れ場所かくればしょNeutralA place to hide, strictly in the physical sense — it can't express a mental escape the way 「逃げ場」 can in 「逃げ場がない」.
• SynonymアサイラムWrittenA formal, written loanword for political asylum; also for institutions such as psychiatric hospitals, but rare in everyday use.
• Synonym隠れ場かくればNeutralA colloquial hiding spot, close in meaning to 「隠れ場所」 and slightly shorter.
• SynonymアジールWrittenA written, academic loanword for asylum in the historical sense — protection from persecution in earlier times, not everyday speech.
• Related聖域せいいきNeutralSacred, inviolable ground; figuratively, a field or topic that must not be touched — about being off-limits, not about escaping.

Pick 「逃げ場」 for somewhere to flee to when cornered, literally or as a mental outlet (「逃げ場がない」). For disaster shelters say 「避難所」; for hiding spots, 「隠れ家」. 「サンクチュアリ」 stresses safety and protection, 「駆け込み寺」 is a figurative place to seek help, 「アサイラム」 and 「アジール」 are formal terms for asylum, and 「聖域」 is untouchable ground.
