The Tungna (Nepali: टुङ्ना) is a plucked string instrument from the Northern Himalayan region: Nepal, Tibet, Sikkim and Bhutan.

The front hollow body (which serves as the sound-box) is covered with stretched animal skin on which the 'bridge' sits.

It is mostly played by the people in the Himalayan Kingdom of Nepal mainly by the Tamang, Gurung and Sherpa people during auspicious occasions, gatherings and festivals.

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