Viskhapatnam AKA vizag will always be one of my favorite city on the east cost . I have not lived here my entire life but I have been visiting this city almost every year since I was about 10 years old. When I first visited this place it was barely developed . There were only residential areas mostly and a few movie theaters and shopping complexes . This was about 11 years ago. But in the recent times I have seen it change a lot. And I dont know where to start . Well lets start from the cleanliness first. When I was kid I remember the roads were just like any other indian roads with potholes , broken patches here and there garbage every where . But in the recent times the cleanliness has gone soo far . The government has really looked into the awareness among the people and today the roads in vizag city are the best to drive on . There is hardly any garbage on the roads . Waste managment has been properly managed. And also we have a lot of big industries and tourism companies looking into this place . Today you even have hotels like the park hyatt , novotel and the gateway hotel which are considered some of the best hotels in india .
.
And another major reason why I like this city is that this place is covered with high lush green mountains on three sides andthe bay of bengal on the other side. And you stay in between all that . You never feel like you are living in urban jungle . There is always plenty of fresh air and a beautiful sea shore to look at . Though the beach gets a little crowed at some days but there are a few spots further up ahead on the beach road where you can enjoy some peaceful beach time . And the beach road is just wonderful to drive on .
So if you are planning to visit the east cost of india do not miss this place.
