What the colors (of the flags) symbolize: blue=sky; white=clouds; red=fire, green=water; yellow=earth.

The swastika is a symbol of balance to Buddhism, but in places where westerners could go, they are often modified from their original form, in order to not offend.

The wind horse carries prayers from earth to heaven. This belief actually pre-dates Buddhism. You can see this symbol everywhere, including prayer wheels and flags.
