Carmona is built on a ridge overlooking the central plain of Andalusia; to the north is the Sierra Morena, with the peak of San Cristobal to the south. The city is known for its thriving trade in wine, olive oil, grain and cattle, and holds an annual fair in April.[2]
It is ascribed both to the comarca of Campiña de Carmona and the comarca of Los Alcores.[3]
