flower clock (reloj de flores)

Nice place for photo and is symbol of Vina del mar. Our guide explained it was given to Chile by the Swiss. Nice, huh? Well, according to him, they can only get parts from maintenance from Switzerland and those parts have cost a fortune over the years.....good story

Sometimes you do wonder how things get on the tourist route -but bus loads were stopping,so we stopped. Nice design of flowers & the clock does work. A couple of snaps are you are gone.

It is a must see if you travel to Vina. I saw it several times as my hotel was just a block away. I am kinda mad at myself that of the 5 or so times i walked or drove by I didn't take a picture.....oh well maybe next time

The Flower Clock is interesting but it attracts so many tourists that it is hard to both see and use as a photo background. If someone can double park and let you have a quick look it is ok but otherwise I would skip it.Look up the Floral Clock at the Kentucky State Capitol for one of grand proportions...... There is also a floral clock in Petropolis outside of Rio in Brazil.If this review is helpful then please indicate so below.

The Flower Clock is the symbol of Viña, is not the greatest thing in the world, but is something you must do and take a picture if you visit the beautiful city of Viña. It's really beautiful with all the flowers and colors. It is close of the center, just a few minutes walking, or you can take bus or metro to get there. Also near there you can see the Castle and the beach. Visited during Viña del Mar Festival 2014.

It's within walking distance from the centre of Viña del Mar and you also get to see the Wulff Castle along the short walk.

It is a pretty site and a quick stop everyone visiting Vina should see. It is a beautiful flower clock and a central area for transportation in and around the area.

Nothing very special. It breaks down often. You can take a few snaps. If you are driving, make sure to park up on the hill. The parking place near the beach will charge you a high price. Try not to go at night, you might be mugged.

Nice and well maintained this is the symbol of Vina. Take a couple of photos but don't plan to spend much time here. Vina has other nice attractions.

This is a lovely spot and the clock really does run. We were there early, so only a few persons trying to take photos. Definitely stop if in the area, but I don't think it's worth driving out of your way to see it.

A beautiful clock in a flowerbed. Location not easily to find but after asking a few people we found it. It is beautifully maintained and we were there when the clock struck 12 pm.

That's pretty much all you need to know about it. I'm sure it is special for a whole variety of reasons that are completely lost on me. Fortunately it is very easy to find and drive or walk by. But if it does happen to be far out of the way, I wouldn't bother.

The flower clock garden is beautifully maintained and worth a looksee if you are in the area. Makes for some nice photos with it in the background. Apparently it was the second flower clock built ever ! There's a bit of trivia for you.

Worth stoping by to take a picture.There's nothing much to do here but you can leverage on the location to go see the beach.
