Parkala is a small town situated near to the Manipal , the university town of Karnataka , India .The students living in Manipal may find the rates of vegetables and fruits very high as the merchants here have made an artificial inflation of everyday products , but there is a solution . Every friday in Parkala, market is held by locals where one can buy all the fruits and vegetables at very cheap rates . Most of the locals residing nearby use to buy from here for a stock of a week .
I visited the same on 7- April- 17 with My buddies Samina Gurung and Rishika Thapa and enjoyed the quality yet economic shopping.
