Rajiv Smruthi Bhavan, Memorial building at Beach Road, Visakhapatnam, India.
Rajiv Smruthi Bhavan is a memorial building along the coastal road in Visakhapatnam featuring modern design elements and exhibition spaces. The structure includes a dedicated area for photographic displays and an auditorium for events and presentations.
