The history of Lakkar Bazaar is intertwined with the traditional woodcraft of the region. For generations, local artisans have honed their skills in woodworking, using the abundant cedar and deodar trees found in the surrounding forests. The bazaar emerged as a central hub for these artisans to showcase and sell their creations. Over time, it evolved from a local trading post to a popular tourist destination. The name 'Lakkar Bazaar' literally translates to 'wood market,' reflecting its historical significance as a marketplace for wooden goods. The skills and techniques used in crafting these wooden items have been passed down through families, preserving the rich cultural heritage of the region. Today, Lakkar Bazaar stands as a testament to the enduring legacy of traditional woodcraft in Mashobra.
