Baydu (Mongolian script: ᠪᠠᠶᠢᠳᠤ; Mongolian: Байду) (died 1295) was the sixth ruler of the Mongol empire's Ilkhanate division in Iran. He was the son of Taraqai, who was in turn the fifth son of Hulagu Khan. [3] He succeeded his cousin Gaykhatu as khan of the Ilkhanate in 1295.
Rashid al-Din gives detailed account of his birth on Jami' al-Tawarikh - he was born to Hulagu and his Oirat wife Öljei on 23 October 1256 at night. He was youngest son of his father.

Nevertheless, Gaykhatu fled to Mughan. Arriving in Tabriz, Taghachar set Qoncuqbal and Tuladai free, while Gaykhatu desperately begged for mercy.
