Queen Sado of the Park clan (Korean사도왕후 박씨; Hanja思道王后 朴氏; ? – February 614) was a Queen Consort of Silla as the spouse of king King Jinheung of Silla, and the mother of his successor, King Jinji of Silla. According to the disputed text Hwarang Segi, she was regent during the minority of her grandson King Jinpyeong in 579-584, but her regent is not mentioned in the historical texts Samguk sagi or Samguk yusa. She later became a Buddhist nun under the name Myobeop (묘법; 妙法).
