Kailasagiri

Kailasagiri is a hilltop park in the city of Visakhapatnam in the Indian state of Andhra Pradesh. The park was developed by the Visakhapatnam Metropolitan Region Development Authority (VMRDA) and consists of land filled with native trees and other flora. The hill, 380 acres (150 ha)at 173 metres (568 ft), overlooks the city of Visakhapatnam.

Kailasagiri is located around 10 km from the Visakhapatnam Railway Station and around 8 km from Visakhapatnam Dwaraka Bus Station.

The Government of Andhra Pradesh awarded Kailasagiri as its "Best Tourist Spot" in 2003.[citation needed]

Kailasagiri Ropeway in Vishakhapatnam is an existing 350 meter long cable car system to the top of the hill, the first of its kind in Andhra Pradesh.

Kailasagiri Skybridge in Vishakhapatnam is an existing 55 meter glassbridge on the hilltop overlooking the city and east coast.

On average, around three hundred thousand Indian and foreign tourists visit the park every year.

To protect the environment, VMRDA has declared the hill a plastic-free zone.
