Imbabura is a province in north Ecuador in Sierra Region. The
capital is Ibarra.
Željko Heimer, 15 July 1996
Imbabura province (435,300 ha; 344,044 inhabitants in 2001) was established
on 25 June 1824 by the Congress of Gran Colombia gathered in Bogotá.

According to a photo at <fici.nativeweb.org>,
the flag (or the ceremonial flag?) includes the Coat of Arms. In
the photo the flag doesn't looks like 1:2.
Dov Gutterman, 4 June 2001
The official website of
the province does not seem to say anything on the symbols.
There is an image of the flag on Wikipedia, "based in the
original design", representing the flag with 523 x 231 px
and the triangle much bigger than on the image above.
Ivan Sache, 13 October 2008
The symbols of Imbabura province are prescribed in a Decree issued on 22
August 1957.
Article 1.
The official emblems of Imbabura province
shall be a flag composed of three stripes, from top to bottom, red, white and
green, with a blue triangle whose vertex matches the center of the white stripe;
a coat of arms, synthesis of the province's spirit and greatness, composed of a
shield whose golden border represents nobleness that surrounds it; at the top of
the shield is the Imbabura sky charged with four stars representing the four
cantons composing the province in perennial confraternity; the sky is
superimposed with Mount Imbabura, whose shape represents the elevation of
thought in which the inhabitants search for inspiration; at the mountain's foot
is a lake reproducing those embellishing the Imbabura landscape; beneath the
lake is a white field charged with a cornucopia pouring crop products proper to
the province; on the dexter and sinister flanks are shown a branch of laurel and
a branch of olive, symbolizing Imbabura's triumph and peace; the two branches
are tied by a blue scroll representing the union of triumph and peace enjoyed by
the province all along its history; the shield is crowned by a sun, meaning the
creating principle of the inhabitants; all over is a scroll inscribed "Provincia
de Imbabura 1824".
