Padukasthan (Nepali: पादुकास्थान) is a Hindu religious site in Dailekh district of Karnali Province in Nepal. It is one of the five places under the Panchkoshi, the five holy places of Dailekh. This site is located at Dullu Municipality, former Padukasthan VDC. According to mythology, this place is named after Lord Shiva's wife, Satidevi's decayed feet; "Paduka" meaning feet and "sthan" meaning the place.
