Vizianagaram district spans across the Eastern Ghats region with numerous mandals, agricultural lands, and a network of transportation connecting various settlements.

The district emerged from territories ruled by the Vijayanagar empire, which defended southern India against Muslim expansion during the 14th and 15th centuries.

The region maintains traditional agricultural practices where local farmers cultivate essential crops while following customs passed down through generations.

The district capital Vizianagaram functions as a major transportation hub with railway junctions and roads connecting to Visakhapatnam and other neighboring areas.
