Labyrinth Park
Hersonissos 700 14
Three-dimensional maze of stairways, bridges and towers themed on the myth of the Minotaur.
This guide to Labyrinth Park near Heraklion retells the myth behind it, Theseus entering the Minotaur's maze beneath Knossos with only a thread from Ariadne to guide him back, and Daedalus, the architect clever enough to build the maze and later wings to escape it. It then turns to the modern park itself, designed by Adrian Fisher, one of the world's most prolific maze designers, and the three-dimensional layout of staircases, bridges and towers he built across roughly thirteen hundred square meters. Listen for how close other visitors can sound while still being nowhere in sight.
