The Flag

Takasaki city in Gunma adopted its flag on January 1st 1981.
proportion:2:3
field: purple
emblem: white
Stylized two ancient kanji Taka 高 of Takasaki in diamond shape.
Nozomi Kariyasu, 19 November 2005

The emblem is as established in the 1920 city notice number 89 (in Japanese), dated 29 November.
The two ancient kanji taka 高 (tall/expensive) are arrangd as on top of each other, one up, one down, to form a diamond.
