The design for the flag was ordered by Francisco Medina Asencio who was the governor of Guadalajara in 1967. The colors were taken from the towers of the metropolitan cathedral which was built in the middle of the 19th century of pumice by the architect Manuel Gómez Ibarra to lighten them in case of earthquake, after the original towers were destroyed by a quake in 1818. The colors are those that in a singular way represent the city, these colors can be found in the flowers of urban gardens of the city, urban equipment, taxis and the state traffic plates.
