The flag of London, known as the Greater London flag, features a white shield with a red cross and a sword in the center, surrounded by ten smaller red crosses representing the ten London boroughs. The white and red colors are traditionally associated with England.
The design of the flag was created by the College of Arms and was officially adopted in 1965. The flag is a symbol of the Greater London area, which consists of the City of London and the 32 London boroughs.
The red sword in the flag represents the sword of St. Paul, who is the patron saint of London. The red crosses symbolize the Christian heritage of the city.
The flag is commonly flown at official events and ceremonies in London, as well as by residents and businesses who take pride in the city and its history. It has become a recognizable symbol of the city and its distinct identity within England.
