MUNICIPALITY OF PULILAN

PROVINCE OF BULACAN

Year Approved: 1993


SYMBOLISM 

The bamboo shield is derived from the seal of the province where the Municipality is located.

The seal as a whole symbolizes a typical scenery of how the famous traditional May festivities is celebrated in honor of the Patron Saint, San Isidro de Labrador. This activity is now a great tourist attraction for the town of Pulilan.

The most significant feature of the seal is the cararabo kneeling in front of the San Isidro Parish Church. Riding the carabao is a typical farmer with a salakot on his head and a plow on his shoulder. This particular scene is found at the center of the round seal. At the left is a small nipa hut with a full grown mango tree at the back, a small rice field in front and a mandala on its side.
