City flag
The city emblem was adopted in 1909 but there is no flag law. The white flag is charged with blue city emblem in the center. The flag proportions are 2:3. The city emblem is composed of kanji 和 WA in the center and stylized katakana カ KA in a circle form. The mountain shape represents the topography of the city surrounded by mountains in three directions. The white arrow stands for the development of the city.
