Queen Victoria Pavilion Vizag

A culturally significant destination always enthrals us and if that happens to be an acclaimed tourist spot as well, then it is like killing two birds with an arrow! A place of extreme historical value, Queen Victoria Pavilion is situated in Vishakapatanam’s One Town area, Andhra Pradesh, India. It has one of the oldest statues which is made entirely out of bronze.

 

It is astonishing to know that the celebrated Queen Victoria of England, during her reign in India, had a ‘home’ in Visakhapatnam. It is located on the crossroads near the office of Old Registrar and the old, dilapidated State Bank building.

 

History of Queen Victoria Pavilion

Queen Victoria Pavilion holds a salient position in both Vizag’s as well as India’s heritage. The bronze statue erected at the pavilion was a gift presented by the British Government to the town during the visit of Zamindar Akitam Venkata JaggaRao to England in 1900. Inaugurated on 4 May 1904, this patrimony is over a century old.
