Description of the flag

White coat of arms on dull purple field.

Stylized Kanji character CHI 千 in a shape of flying crane looks like a Hiragana character YO よ in a disc. The crane in a disc can read Kanji character DA 田 and whole coat-of-arms represents Chiyoda.

Coat of arms adopted 26 March 1950.

Flag unlegislated.

Nozomi Kariyasu, 26 March 1999
