How to download webpage from a particular folder using wget?

I use wget to download webpages from websites but it downloads the whole website instead of downloading a specific folder on the website, even if I specify the particular path.For example,

wget -r www.example.com/subfolder/

Using the above command, downloads all the pages from the website instead of downloading the pages from /subfolder.

The wget help shows the following option:

  -np, --no-parent                 don't ascend to the parent directory.

By default, there are likely links from the subfolder to the site home page, which wget normally follows.
