The handcrafted item shown here is the Hudka. The Hudka is the traditional musical instrument of Uttarakhand. When you look at the instrument closely, you will find that the Hudka instrument is shaped like a Damru but is played with the help of hands. Playing the natural instrument is considered to be sacred, and its fine-tune depicts the rich Himalayan culture of Uttarakhand and the people living there.
