Flor de Venezuela, Modern monument in Barquisimeto, Venezuela.

Flor de Venezuela is a modern monument in Barquisimeto, Venezuela, built around a central platform with 16 movable metal petals. The petals open and close, reaching a height of 19 meters (62 feet) above the platform.

The structure was originally designed as Venezuela's pavilion for the 2000 World Expo in Hannover, Germany. It earned second place there for its presentation in the tourism category.

The name refers to Venezuela's national flower, an orchid species that serves as a symbol of the country. The structure sits on a formation reminiscent of Gran Sabana landscapes, showing this connection to nature.

The monument stands in the Triángulo del Este area of Barquisimeto, in Lara state. Its grounds hold gardens and wooded areas representing Venezuelan landscapes, plus an aquarium, a library and an amphitheatre. The 16 steel-and-glass petals can open and close, so the appearance of the structure changes with their position.

The 16 petals were designed to open and close, and the architect Fruto Vivas drew the shape from the tepuis of the Gran Sabana and Venezuela's national flower, the orchid. The structure first stood as Venezuela's pavilion at Expo 2000 in Hannover, Germany, before being moved to Barquisimeto from 2006 and inaugurated on its present site in 2008.
