Visakhapatnam Imagine
golden
beaches that stretch as far as your imagination, green hills rising high on the
other side, a city thriving on modern industry and commerce in the midst. Add to
the scenario a generous mix of ancient Buddhist heritage, geological wonders,
famous temples, inviting culture and mesmerizing arts & crafts.
Visakhapatnam will better your imagination with all of these and more. It is a
city keeping pace with the times, even while preserving its rich past. It is a
city painted with industrial revolution, even as it retains its colours of
nature. Welcome to one of the most beautiful imprints of civilization on the
Indian soil - Visakhapatnam (popularly known as Vizag). The
second largest city of Andhra Pradesh and one of
the fastest growing cities in Asia. Once a small
fishing village, the city today is a busy port
endowed with a natural harbor. A number of major
industries, ship building yard, a mega oil
refinery, a massive steel and power plant make
Vizag one of the modern faces of India. However,
all the industrial progress of Vizag has taken
place in the midst of the awe-inspiring Eastern
Ghats on one side and the blue waters of Bay of
Bengal on the other, giving the city a magical
touch.
