Really well maintained and busy park in a very residential district. Lots of play areas for kids,…read morewater features and lots of open space for yoga classes etc. It is circular so you can do the path around it if you're looking for jogging/walking trails. The natural science museum is on the edge of the property towards the west and although we have not been there we hear great reviews about it and plan to go soon.

Not as big nor as significant as a Central Park in Manhattan, for example, but this area is in its own sense the Central Park of Palermo neighborhood. The neighborhood is filled with bars, clubs, restaurants, crowds, and so on. Sometimes it is nice to get away from that and enjoy a bit of nature. In Palermo, this is as good as it gets. I definitely recommend coming to this park sometime. I have noticed that some area are open past 5pm, but I am not sure which ones are.

During weekends it seems to be the top choice for a nice day out, tons of joggers, children, dog owners, teenagers, older couples and everything in between decide to spend at least a couple of hours in Chacabuco Park eating candy apples and sweet popcorn... or smoking pot and drinking Fernet con Coca. To each its own! But, as it happens in most public parks, you have to be alert. As soon as the sun goes down, better be aware of your surroundings, specially if you're by yourself. All in all, it's a really nice park, really suitable to spend a nice day out with family or friends (humans and canines alike).

This steel sculpture is one of the signature landmarks of Buenos Aires. It was donated to the city…read moreby an architect in 2002. The sculpture is fairly big (75 feet tall), with its signature characteristic being that its petals can move. The petals are retracted at sunset and then opened up again at sunrise. I thought that it was a gorgeous looking sculpture, but not something to go out of one's way for. What was disappointing as well is that you cannot get close to it and only take photos from a distance. It is surrounded by a reflecting pool. However, it was a perfect add on to my visit to the nearby Recoleta Cemetery.

Floralis Genérica is definitely a cool landmark -- a massive steel flower set in a peaceful park near Recoleta. The design is striking, and the area is impressively clean and well-kept. You'll get some great photo ops here, especially when the petals are open under the sun. But a couple of things held me back from giving this a higher rating. For one, you can't get very close to the sculpture. Unlike something like "The Bean" in Chicago, where you can walk right up, touch it, and experience it from all angles, here you're kept at a distance -- which limits the interaction and overall impact. Also: where are the public restrooms? For such a major tourist draw, there's a surprising lack of bathroom access. A place like this should absolutely have free public facilities -- it's a basic expectation, especially for families and international visitors. Still, it's a worthwhile stop if you're exploring the city and want something visually iconic and relatively quiet. Just come prepared -- and maybe don't load up on coffee right beforehand.
