Based on the analysis of the map and the compass rose, here are the solutions to the questions:
1.
Start at the gate and go east. What do you see?
* The gate is at the top (North) of the map.
* East is to the right on the map.
* Looking to the right from the gate, you will see the
Garden and the
Swings.
2.
Go to the swings. In which direction are they?
* The swings are located in the upper right section of the map.
* From the starting point (the gate at the top/North), this position is to the right (East) and slightly down (South).
* Therefore, the swings are in the
Northeast direction.
3.
Next you come to a fountain. In which direction did you walk?
* The fountain is located on the left side of the map.
* From the starting point (the gate at the top/North), walking to the left means you walked
West.
4.
If you go north, what will you see?
* Assuming you are starting from the fountain (as implied by the sequence of questions), you need to look at what is located above it (to the North).
* Directly above the fountain is the
Ice skating rink.
In summary:
1. Garden and Swings
2. Northeast
3. West
4. Ice skating rink
