Biljana (pronounced [biˈljaːna]) is a settlement east of Dobrovo in the Municipality of Brda in the Littoral region of Slovenia, very close to the border with Italy.

[2] Biljana was first mentioned in written sources in 1205 as Beliana (and as Villana in 1233, Billgianis in 1270, and Bigliana in 1480).

During the late 19th century, the national revival movement took hold here; the Lipa Reading and Choral Society in Biljana was the largest in the Gorizia Hills.

[4] The parish church in the village is dedicated to Saint Michael and belongs to the Diocese of Koper.

The current church has a Gothic belfry and a distinctive chancel with a wooden statue from the end of the 15th century.
