it looks like a saguaro, butI think it's not. Is that a cardon?

It looks like Echinopsis atacamensis to me. Where was the photo taken?

That is clearly a habitat plant. If we know the location, it will make ID much easier.

Echinopsis & Neobuxbaumia grow on different continents!

I'm going to guess Echinopsis (Trichocereus)tarijensis or atacamensis.
