素晴らしい迷路庭園デス。
Isn't 迷路 a "no-adjective"? I would have expected the sentence to be: 素晴らしい迷路の庭園です。Are they both correct or is my version incorrect?

1Related: japanese.stackexchange.com/q/19365/5010 Well, 迷路庭園 is not an established 熟語 at least to me, and I'll probably use 迷路の庭園 to describe this. But those who like gardens or mazes may use this as an established concept.– narutoDec 19 '17 at 15:29

Your line of thinking is actually quite valid.
In this particular case, however, 「迷路庭園{めいろていえん}」 should be regarded as one word meaning a "labyrinth" or "maze garden".
「迷路の庭園」, therefore, would sound slightly wordy though it would be understood by every Japanese-speaker. It just sounds a little too "explanatory".

1Thank you! What about な adjectives? Is it the same? For instance: "あなたとの数々の知的冒険は楽しかったですよ。" Dec 19 '17 at 13:19

1Unless you have an "established" compound word, it would usually be more natural to use a 「な」. 「知的な冒険」, therefore, would sound better than 「知的冒険」 in more cases, but if the latter were used as a key word and used repeatedly in a certain context, then it would be more natural not to use the 「な」. Japanese is highly contextual like that. Dec 19 '17 at 14:19
