迷宮 (mí gōng) refers to a complex network of paths or passages that are difficult to navigate. Often designed as a puzzle, a maze can be found in various forms, such as in gardens, art, or literature. The primary purpose of a maze is to challenge individuals to find their way from the entrance to the exit. Historically, mazes have been used in different cultures, including the famous 克里特岛的迷宫 (Labyrinth of Crete) associated with the myth of the 米诺陶 (Minotaur). Today, mazes are popular attractions in amusement parks and are also used in psychological studies to understand navigation and problem-solving skills.
