Overview

I have just received from the Government of Cundinamarca a book that deals with on the shields and flags of this department. This book is called "Shields, Flags and Hymns of Cundinamarca", written by Rosalba Salazar Gallo for the Secretariat of Culture of Cundinamarca. Here is the flag of El Peñón (Rionegro Province).

From <www.cundinamarca.gov.co>:
"Pabellón de forma rectangular, consta de tres franjas horizontales de igual proporción.
La parte superior de color verde significa la esperanza y sus paisajes montanosos.
la segunda parte de color amarillo simboliza la riqueza del municipio y su gente luchadora.
La tercera franja de color azul, representa la abundancia hídrica y bello cielo que los cubre."
