    Overview

    Purificación is a municipality in Tolima Dep. In its site <www.purificacion.4t.com> one can see three changing flags. One for Colombia, one for Tolima, and the third is probably for the municipality.
    Why only probable?
    Since there is a photo at <www.purificacion.4t.com/magen006.html> with another flag....

    From <purificacion-tolima.gov.co>: "Consta de 5 franjas horizontales y de 4 colores. Gualda o amarillo dorado: representa la luz, potencia riqueza, ciencia alegría. Blanco: es el emblema de claridad pureza virtud calma paz y armonía Verde: simboliza la naturaleza, fe, esperanza, tranquilidad y seguridad, limpieza, vía libre. Carmesí o rojo púrpura subido: simboliza la vida, alegría entusiasmo, triunfo fuego valor, poder, dinamismo, caridad, amor. "
