Adliya (Arabic: العدلية) is the bohemian neighborhood in Manama, Bahrain.
== Etymology == Adliya is said to mean "place of justice" - although initially it was referred to as Zulm Abad (), like other city names of Bahrain with Persian roots, the original name implied that this is a place of "oppression" and was similar to the name of a village in Gotvand County, Khuzestan, Iran – contrary to the original name, this place is not a place of oppression, rather, it has become the city of lovers.
