Zilje (; ) is a settlement above the left bank of the Kolpa River in the Municipality of Črnomelj in the White Carniola area of southeastern Slovenia. The area is part of the traditional region of Lower Carniola and is now included in the Southeast Slovenia Statistical Region.

==Geography== Zilje has three settlement centers: Gornje Zilje (literally, 'upper Zilje') to the west with a smaller hamlet called Majišče, Srednje Zilje (literally, 'middle Zilje') east of that, also known as Cvetaše, and Spodnje Zilje (literally, 'lower Zilje') furthest east. A road from Vinica to Preloka runs through the village. The fields have sinkholes, and above them are sparse birch and fern woods, low-quality hay fields mowed once a year, and then mixed woods in the direction of Bojanci. The village lies on the sheltered lee of a hill, favorable for orchards and vineyards.
