The flag of the Çınar district government is white with the government's emblem in the center. "Kaymakamlığı" means "District government".
The emblem also features the Dilaver bridge,
a 16th century Ottoman monument, which connects Diyarbakır to more than
100 localities in the Karacadağ region.
Obsolete, the bridge is the site of frequent traffic accidents. A
petition has been tabled to the Turkish government to erect a new,
modern bridge.
