Recaș (archaically Armag; ; ; ) is a town in Timiș County, Romania. Six villages are administered by the town: Bazoș, Herneacova, Izvin, Nadăș, Petrovaselo, and Stanciova. It received town status in April 2004. Recaș is best known for the wine produced in the surrounding hills. == Geography == Recaș covers an area of , 2.66% of the total area of Timiș County, and is located in an area of sunny hills, favorable to agriculture.

Recaș is crossed to the south by the Timiș River and the Bega Canal. The climate is temperate continental with a slight Mediterranean influence, the winters being generally mild, the summers warm, the autumns long and the transitions from winter to summer quite sudden. Climatic and soil characteristics make this area particularly conducive to viticulture. === Relief and natural resources === Recaș is characterized by a hilly landscape that serves as a transitional zone between the northern highlands and the southern plains. In the northern part of the commune, approximately 45% of the terrain consists of the Lipova Hills, which form a natural link between the Banat Piedmont and the Western Plain. This area—including the localities of Stanciova, Herneacova, and Nadăș—exhibits piedmont features, with a general slope oriented from north-northeast to south-southwest and altitudes ranging between 280 and 178 meters.
