A maze is a complex network of paths or hedges designed to confuse those navigating through it. Typically, it consists of a series of interconnected routes, with dead ends and twists that challenge a person's ability to find the correct path to the exit. Mazes can be found in various forms, including hedge mazes, labyrinths, and puzzle games. Mazes have been used for entertainment, education, and even psychological studies. They can vary in size and complexity, from simple designs for children to intricate structures for adults. Some famous examples include the Labyrinth of Knossos in Greece and modern corn mazes created for seasonal festivities.
