Flag of Lima Peru - Frosted Pint Glass 16oz

The Flag of Lima, Peru is a symbolic representation of the city's historical heritage and cultural identity. Adopted on June 19, 1950, it consists of three horizontal bands of white, red, and blue. The upper band, representing peace and purity, is white; the central band, symbolizing courage and valor, is red; and the lower band, standing for loyalty and truth, is blue. A yellow rectangle in the shape of a trapezoid, known as the 'Viceroyalty of Peru' or 'Castle and Liberty,' is positioned in the center of the flag. The design of this emblem dates back to 1781 when it was used during the Spanish colonial period. Today, the Flag of Lima serves as a significant national and cultural emblem within Peruvian society.
