Apeyadana (Burmese: အပယ် ရတနာ, [ʔəpɛ̀ jədənà]; also spelled Abeyadana) was the chief queen consort of King Kyansittha of the Pagan Dynasty of Burma (Myanmar) and maternal grandmother of King Sithu I of Pagan. She married Kyansittha when he was just a young officer in the army, before his coronation. She was succeeded as the chief queen by Thanbula.

The Apeyadana Temple in Bagan (Pagan) is named after the queen.
