Jayendrabhā or Jayaendra[valla]bha (8th-century - 9th-century), was a queen regnant of Sambhupura Chenla in Cambodia.[2] She was also the queen of Jayendravarman, the king of Upper Chenla.[1]

She was the daughter of queen Nrpendradevi of Sambhupura. She appears to have inherited the throne from her mother. She married king Jayendravarman (r. 780-802).[1]

Jayendravarman became King consort of Sambhupura by marrying her.[1][3]

Her daughter queen Jyeṣṭhāryā succeeded her on the throne by 803.
