Carmenca is a town in central Moldova, located about 100 km north of the capital city of Chisinave, and is part of the Carmenca District, which is the administrative center of the district. The town is located in the Moldovan hills and is surrounded by fertile farmland, where agriculture is the mainstay of the local economy, with crops such as sunflowers, corn and wheat.
