Here is an example of a Labyrinth:

  • Note that this is not a very good labyrinth, it is asymmetrical and inelegant and generally not very symbolic. Mostly I just put it up here because I like to give graphic examples where possible.
  • Also, thanks to qousqous for reminding me that the first version here was in fact a maze. (Though I personally feel that a maze could do just as good a job at putting you in a contemplative mood, were you to wander around in one.)
