Panoramic view of the harbour and old vizag city. Climbing the stairs may be tough for aged people. But the view is worth mentioning.

A newly built light house at the same location of historical Vizag light house during time of British settlement in Vizag in 1800's. One of the must see place for people interested in Heritage of Vizag. Being maintained by VCTPL, this place is having a small park with a navy machine gun and entrance to light house premises and going to top require a special permission from VCTPL
