Sectorul Ciocana

Sectorul Ciocana is one of the five sectors in Chişinău, the capital of Moldova.

It governs over a portion of the city of Chişinău itself (the eastern part), the town of Vadul lui Vodă, and the communes of Bubuieci, Budeşti, Coloniţa, Cruzeşti and Tohatin.

The name of the sector comes from the name of the former village of Ciocana Nouă, included in the borders of Chisinau only in 1959.

Ciocana is considered one of the most industrialized sectors of Chisinau.

The Ciocana sector was founded as an administrative-territorial unit in August 1985.
