Kadlekai Parishe (Peanut fair)
Bangalore, Karnataka, IndiaAbout
Kadlekai Parishe (Peanut fair), Every year, sometime during the months of Nov-Dec, the area around Bull Temple Road in South Bengaluru hosts a peanut fair. Centuries ago, the villages in and around this area used to cultivate peanuts and the custom was to dedicate the first crop to Nandi (the Bull at the temple). Although the villages of yore are today residential areas, the tradition continues as peanut farmers congregate to sell their crop. The 2 day traditional fair has many stalls that sell peanuts, trinkets, bangles, pottery, dolls etc. There are also a number of food stalls.
