We reached there by 2 pm.After having a light refreshment we headed to our first destination the KAILASAGIRI HILLS on APTDC BUS. It offered ride at a reasonable rate.We could easily locate this place as there was a big hoarding on the hill.It is actually a must visit place if you are in Vizag,for the variety of activities it offers,like the rope way journey,
panoramic views of beaches
toy train ride around the hilltop ,giving a 360 degree view of the city.,
mesmerising view of the beautiful city of vizag during the evening hours &
Apart from this the grandeur idols of LORD SHIV & PARVATHY ,larger than life lovely than day & night..!

It was indeed a mind blowing experience and hats off for the great effort of our indian navy and the sacrifices they do, so people like us could sleep peacefully..!
We spent some time in vuda park, the park of love, did little shopping and headed back to our room after a day'z blast............
Next day morning we set forth to have a divine experience .A temple on a hill top :SIMHACHALAM temple which is one of the most revered temple in Andhra Pradesh..

4th avtar of LORD Vishnu.After getting a good darsan we had the
privilage of getting the prasada too, the delicious pulihodara(tamarind
rice).
Rest of the day was dedicated for exploring the delicacies of andhra like
After relishing the beauty of the city and its robust cuisine,it was the moment to bid farewell to this alluring city of VISAGAPATANAM...
