Edinec is the capital of the Edinec District in northern Moldova, situated on the banks of the Zirniya River, a tributary of the Prut River, and close to the Ukrainian border, making it an important cross-border city and regional economic hub for the country. The local economy is dominated by agriculture, with an abundance of grapes, wheat and sunflowers, and a long history of winemaking, with some of the traditional wineries retaining their ancient brewing techniques and exporting their products to Europe. The city's culture is heavily influenced by Orthodox Christianity and Slavic traditions, with the 19th-century Church of St. Nicholas being a landmark, and the summer folklore festival showcasing folk dances and crafts. As a major transportation hub connecting Moldova's major cities with Ukraine, Edinetz has a vibrant market scene and is surrounded by idyllic countryside, making it an ideal place to experience the rural culture and cross-border flavors of northern Moldova.
