Aşağıdoluca (kurd. Aşağı Xarik or Xarik / Harik for short ) is a village in the Nazımiye district of the Turkish province of Tunceli . Aşağıdoluca ("Lower Doluca") is located on the southern border of the district, 3 km south of Yukarıdoluca ("Upper Doluca") and about 12 km southeast of Nazımiye.

In the 1990s the village was abandoned due to threats and fighting between the security forces and the PKK. At that time about 580 people lived there. After 1997, Aşağıdoluca was repopulated. In 2011 there were 261 people in Aşağıdoluca.

The region is mountainous. The slopes are sparsely covered with trees. There is a hot spring in the Aşağıdoluca Valley. The water is led into a basin and is considered medicinal.
