A Clock that Blooms All Year Round: The Story of the Vineyard Icon

A Clock that Blooms All Year Round: The Story of the Vineyard Icon

The Flower Clock of Viña del Mar is one of the most representative icons of the city, with a history dating back to 1962. It was created to commemorate the World Cup held in Chile that year, and was installed on the slope of Cerro Castillo, at the entrance to the city, to beautify the area and welcome tourists.

This work of engineering and gardening has a Swiss mechanism that ensures its precision, as well as wrought iron hands that mark the time on a dial decorated with flowers. These flowers, which are constantly renewed, form the numbers and decorate the clock, giving it a unique color that distinguishes it.

Over the years, the Flower Clock has become a symbol of Viña del Mar, attracting thousands of visitors every year. Those who come to the city seek to take a picture next to this natural work of art and enjoy its timeless beauty. Don't forget to include it in your tour with AMULEN TOUR!
