My wife and I wondered where the big tulip was located. We found it when we went to the terrace on top of the National Museum of Fine Arts. It is located in the park behind the museum. It was special seeing it, but I wouldn’t go out of my way to see it.

I wish it opened and closed as I am sure it would be more impressive. It still is pleasant to look at in its current state. The area also has a park and across the street is the museo nacional de bellas artes. There is another large building next floralis which appears abandoned and is in some disrepair with graffiti. The trees were blooming in November which added to the area

The petals of this huge flower sculpture were damaged (and in one case broken/fallen) by a windstorm that had happened in late 2023/early 2024. So it no longer moves or really even looks that great, and our guide said he had no idea when it might be fixed, but probably not anytime soon. That said, we were able to walk around the perimeter of the installation and view the giant sculpture, so we still enjoyed stopping there for about 10 minutes.

Looks pretty spectacular when 100% but a storm has wreaked havoc on this giant flower! The 6 petals are supposed to open & close but has been severely damaged. The sculpture was a gift to Buenos Aries, by the sculptor back in 2002 but with the economy in its present shape, repairs are a distant possibility!
