It is primarily an industrial city, apart from being a port city. It is also home to the Eastern Naval Command. Visakhapatnam has seen rapid development in the past decade. Some of the Glimpses (snapshots by me) from the city and its surrounding areas in the district are posted here in this post. Enjoy :)
