Travelling is one
thing for which I can set aside all other entertainment from my menu. For me
this is the best way to cool down and kicked the distressing worries. I make a
point to travel at least once in a year. Not my all destinations are
satisfactory like my memorable tour to valley of flower but every
destination gave me a unique experience. Last Durga Puja vacation I
wanted to visit Andaman but plan failed at the last moment. I was
thinking that I have to spent the break sitting at home because it was
impossible to get all the necessary booking but then I booked a package tour
with a small time tour operator for seven days for Andhra. Before this
one whenever we traveled we depended on our own scheduled, so that was the
first which I have to depend upon the plan of the operator going to provide. Our
destination was – Visakhapatnam, Araku Valley
and then to Hyderabad.
Not a great destination for the people like me but only thing that I was never
been to these places.
We stayed three days
in Visakhapatnam out of one we spent at Araku Valley.
Visakhapatnam
Visakhapatnam also known as Vizag, is a port city
on the southeast coast of India.
It is the second-largest city in the
state of Andhra Pradesh after Hyderabad
and the third-largest city on the east coast after Chennai and Kolkata. Visakhapatnam is one of India's largest seaports and has
the country's oldest shipyard.
The city was named
after Visakha, the Hindu god of valor. It is nestled among the hills of
the Eastern Ghats and faces the Bay of Bengal
on the east. Visakhapatnam is the administrative
headquarters of Visakhapatnam
district and headquarters of the Eastern Naval Command of the Indian Navy. Visakhapatnam was mentioned in the Indian epics Ramayana
and Mahabharata in the forests of the Eastern Ghats
where the two brothers, Rama and Lakshmana, wandered in search of
Sita.
Must See Places

serene beach named the Rama
