The Tungana (Nepali: टुङ्ना) is a plucked string instrument from Nepal. It is made from a single piece of carved wood. The front hollow body (which serves as the sound-box) is covered with stretched animal skin on which the ‘bridge’ sits.[1] The Tungna has four strings which is anchored to the keys and body at both ends and the ‘bridge’ acts as a cantilever thus maintaining the tension of the strings.

The musicians play the Tungna and sing songs, which they compose themselves especially to welcome the New Year or during the harvest season.
