How often do we cringe when someone talks ill about our beloved Visakhapatnam? The city, which has a special spot in our hearts, has a distinctive feature that sets it apart from others. Be it the refreshing beaches, the spotless sceneries, or even its unique culture, this city has many reasons in the store that make us fall in love with it.

As if the already existing reasons weren’t enough, many recent events and developments have further establishing Visakhapatnam as one of the most happening cities in India. Here are 5 things that are contributing in a major way to the emergence of “Brand Vizag”.

1) Tourism Industry

This comes as a no-brainer. Those pristine beaches and lush green hills possess a magic that can woo over anyone. An ideal locale to carry out multiple tourist activities, Visakhapatnam has been flourishing with innumerous captivating events off late. From the Araku Balloon Festival to the ongoing Visakha Utsav, these events have been infusing new flavours into the city’s vibe.

2) IT Hub

Keeping in line with the government’s agenda of turning Visakhapatnam into Andhra Pradesh’s IT hub, many companies have expressed their interest in establishing their firms here. Also, the Fintech valley too can go long way in establishing “Brand Vizag”.

3) Industries

Much similar to the IT companies, other industries also are favourable for setting up their firms on the shores of Visakhapatnam. The city’s favourable conditions are playing a crucial role in attracting major investments.

4) Entertainment/Food

The city is growing and how! Visakhapatnam is no longer the same as compared to that of the early 2000s. Numerous shopping malls and popular eateries have expanded the hangout options in the city to keep us hooked all the time.

5) A Filming destination

From the classical ‘Maro Charitra’ to the latest ‘Vunnadi Okate Zindagi’, Visakhapatnam has always been a favourite spot for filmmakers in Tollywood. The scenic beauty of the city and its surrounding places have even made late Dr. Rama Naidu build a movie studio here.

So the next time someone asks what’s great about Vizag, you have enough reasons to explain about “Brand Vizag”. 😉
