Golluj (Tigre/Tigrinya: ጎልጅ; Arabic: غلخ) is a town in Eritrea. Located in the south-western Gash-Barka region, it is the capital of the Golluj district. Golluj has more arable land per-capita than any other place in Eritrea; therefore, most often it is referred to as the bread basket of Eritrea within the Gash-Barka region. It is very ethnically diverse with vibrant cultures living together in harmony. In addition, the Golluj sub-division consists of many small towns, such as Omahajer, Gergef, Tebeldiya and Gerset.
