The town emblem and the flag were adopted on Feb 11th 2005 by Notice No 52. The white flag has a green and a brown two color town emblem in the center. The town emblem is a stylized kanji 山 Yama of Yamato. It represents the breeze blowing in the town surrounded by Aso Somma and Mountains Kyushu and an image of the town which is harmonized with the people and the nature.
The flag proportion is 2: 3. The height of the emblem is 3/5 height of the flag.
