Often shortened and stylized as Vizag, Visakhapatnam is the largest city in the Indian state of Andhra Pradesh. It is one of the oldest port cities in the country. Visakhapatnam is known for its picturesque beaches and serene landscape, as well as a rich cultural past, which makes it an ideal spot for a fantastic coastal vacation. The port of Visakhapatnam is renowned for being home to the oldest shipyard in all of India, and with a plethora of manmade wonders and natural spectacles, Visakhapatnam is a must-visit tourist destination in South India.
Vizag is dotted with many beaches along itscoastline, with the most famous one being the Yarada Beach. Yarada beach is surrounded by majestic hills on three sides, and by the Bay of Bengal on the other side.
Located a short distance away from Visakhapatnam, Araku Valley is one of the prime attractions of Vizag. Situated at a lofty 910 metres above sea level, Araku Valley is a hill station replete with gushing waterfalls, crystal clear streams, and lush green gardens. The valley is inhabited by a number of tribes who have strongly held on to their vibrant traditions and culture, refusing to let themselves be taken over by commercialization. Araku Valley offers some challenging trekking trails.
The Borra Caves are one of the best tourist attractions that Vizag has to offer. Nestled amidst the Ananthagiri Hills in Araku Valley, the Borra Caves are thousands of years old and are the biggest among all the caves found in India. Made entirely of natural karstic limestone, the caves are kaleidoscopic in nature, and the light falling on the rocks coupled with the waterfalls creates an extremely colourful effect, lending an aura of magic and mysticism to the entire ambience.
Ramakrishna Beach stretches 4km up the coast from the large port area in the south of town, overlooking the Bay of Bengal with its mammoth ships and brightly painted fishing boats. Its pedestrian promenade is great for strolling.
Kailasagiri is a hilltop park in the city of Vizag. The park comprises 380 acres of land covered with flora and tropical trees. The hill, at an altitude of 173 metres, overlooks the city of Vizag. This hilltop can be reached by ropeway as well as by road. The major attraction of Kailasagiri is the 40 feet tall statue of Shiva and Parvathi. Another remarkable attraction popular among the kids is the Toy train. This train gives a circular tour of the park.
The Katiki Waterfalls, situated a short distance away from the Borra Caves, is a gushing waterfall that measures around 50 feet in height and is completely surrounded by the lush greenery of the valley. The crystal-clear water cascading down the rocks, bordered by the gleaming green foliage is a sight for sore eyes.
