The history of the flower clock in Lviv

Hi friends!

Today, I want to tell you about the unique decoration of one of the central squares of the city of Lviv. This is a huge flower clock!

For the first time in a long time, the flower clock was installed on the square of the Customs in 2010. This composition was placed practically in the same place on which such a flower arrangement stood at 50th grade. - 60th of the last century. The author of this miracle argued that the uniqueness of the Lviv clock is that it is constructed and will work round the clock.

It's a pity that a solid clock foundation does not save it from vandals. Each day, the clock bars show the wrong time. However, community service workers do their best to remedy this "defect".

The clock was exactly reproduced, as in the past. The author of the clock, Alexander Burnayev, made a big emphasis on the arrows of the device. After all, they were identical with the arrows of the "old" clock.

At the moment, the area of the clock is about 16 meters square, and the weight of the metal mechanism - more than 300 kg.

Flower clock fascinates city dwellers and tourists with bright colors. After all, in it there is laid a lot of love and human labor. At the moment, the clock is sown with colorful flowers "cocks", past which can not pass.I love these flowers from childhood, so I made a few photos to share with them their beauty.

I am very proud that there are many beautiful structures in my city that make you look happy!
