The city emblem and the flag were adopted on Nov 7th 2005 by Notice No 1 and No 2. The white flag has a green, a blue and an orange three color city emblem in the center. The city emblem is a stylized K of Kirishima. The green color stands for a rich plain field, the blue color for Amorigawa River and Kinko Bay with calm waves, the orange color for the flowers, a vogor and the dreams,the white chevron for the range of Kirishima Mountains. As a whole, it represents an image of the city which makes a leap forward to the world with a reconciliation of a superb nature with the citizen.
The flag proportion is 2: 3. The diameter of the emblem is 3/5 of the height of the flag.
