INTERESTING FACTS

The rainstick is a musical instrument that originates from various cultures of South America, primarily from Chile and Peru. This instrument is known for its distinctive sound, which resembles falling raindrops or a heavy downpour. Rainsticks are traditionally made from long hollow tubes, often from cactus or other plant materials, into which seeds or small pebbles are inserted.
