The flag of Güllübahçe is a white vertical flag with the municipality's emblem shifted to the top.
The emblem displays steps topped by five columns and an amphitheatre, represented in brownish shades on a green landscape with a steep mountain at the right edge. In front of the steps is a greyish arena. The blue sky above the ruins is vharged with a green branch of rose with two red flowers."Belediyesi / Kuruluş 01.03.1961" means "Municipality / Established 01.03.1961".
The ruins probably represent the temple of Greek goddess Athena in the nearby archaeological site of Priene. The mountain is probably Samsun Dag (Greek, Mycale), located above Priene. The roses make the emblem canting, since Güllübahçe means "Rose Garden".
