My study method to remember this character is to imagine the inside of it as a tree, and the enclosure radical as the fence that would guard such tree or plant, hence completing the full picture of a yard or garden.

The character looks like an enclosed maze, where there would be a garden, which also helps me remember that 公园 means park.

I remember this character because gardens or yards are usually rectangles with a fence around it which looks like the radical used. The inside of the character can be remembered because the strokes look like a playground. A playground inside of a fenced yard is typical of a park.

I remember this character because gardens are typically enclosed by a fence or some other structure, and additionally have a square or rectangular shape

A strategy to remember this character is that because it is enclosed with a box, it can represent an enclosed space which is in this case a garden or a yard. The inside can look like a tree, which you would find in a garden or a yard.

How I memorize this character: enclosure radical looks like a fence (one that typically surrounds a garden / yard).

I remember this character by noticing the enclosed radical and how it surrounds the ”元“, similar to the way in which a fence encloses a garden.

I remember this character as an enclosed space where you can have fun, 口 symbolizes the enclosed space/park, while 元 is a part of 玩, which means to play or have fun.

Gardens and parks are often gated, which can be represented by the enclosure radical. Furthermore, people often go to parks to read or feed birds on a bench. 元 looks a lot like a bench.

园 has the same pronunciation as 元, which is enclosed like a garden, so like a botanical garden you have to pay to get in to see the enclose space of flowers

Chinese gardens are enclosed spaces regarded as really valuable. In ancient China, they were built by rich and powerful families. Therefore, we have 元 (unit of currency) inside of 囗 giving us 园.

yuan is like an upside down y, where two lines are going outward, inside a box to represent how money is kept in a “safe”.

half of the character means wan2 (have fun), so if you’re having fun in a closed area, you’re in a garden (yuan2)
