Шаблон:Infobox flag The flag of Budapest is the official municipal flag of Budapest, Hungary. The current design features the city's coat of arms on a white field. The top and bottom edges of the flag are occupied by alternating red and green isosceles triangles. It has been in effect since 15 September 2011, following a decree from the General Assembly of Budapest.

Design and symbolism

The 11 triangles (6 red, 5 green) on the top and bottom edges span the whole length of the flag and have a height of one-tenth that of the flag. The colours red, white, and green represent the national colours of Hungary,[1] as featured on the nation's flag. The colours as used on Hungary's flag symbolize strength (red), faithfulness (white), and hope (green). The coat of arms, first created in 1873,[2] depicts two castles on a red field, with the one-tower castle on top representing Pest, and the three-towered castle on the bottom representing Buda and Óbuda. Separating the two castles is a wavy white line, representing the Danube. Surrounding this shield is a lion on its hind legs to the left and a mythological gryphon to the right. On top of the shield is the Holy Crown of Hungary.[3] The shield is about one-third the height of the flag.[1]
