Visakhapatnam, Port city in Andhra Pradesh, India
Visakhapatnam extends along the Bay of Bengal coast with hills on three sides and contains multiple beaches, parks, and industrial zones.
The natural harbor of Visakhapatnam facilitated maritime trade since ancient times, transforming from a small fishing settlement into a major port city.
The city celebrates regional festivals including Sankranti with traditional music performances, local dance forms, and Telugu cultural expressions throughout the year.
The Visakhapatnam International Airport connects to major cities, while the railway station serves as a primary junction for trains across India.
