The Visakhapatnam Municipal Corporation Museum is known as the "Visakha Museum". An old Dutch bungalow turned into a museum was opened to the public in 1991. Located in front of the famous RK Puram beach of Visakhapatnam, this museum has preserved the combined heritage of Andhra and Kalinga. Though there is a lot to see here in the museum, apart from the weapons, paintings, manuscripts, coins, dress, jewellery, pots used by the former rulers of this region, but some things are displayed in the museum which you will be thrilled to see. The shell of the bomb that was dropped upon Visakhapatnam by Japan during World War II is still kept here. Models of Kalvari class, Sindhughosh class and other class submarines are also displayed in the museum. Models of naval combat airplanes and warships are also displayed in the museum. The vessel named SS Jal Usha which was built in Visakhapatnam was inaugurated by the first Prime Minister of India, Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru, in 1948, by breaking coconut, that coconut is still stored here. The largest tricolor of India is also kept in the museum. This museum gives you very interesting information about the history and culture of the Navy and Kalinga-Andhra region.

The Swarna Jyoti Museum is located in the Naval Area. The museum has models of Naval ships and some naval guns and weapons. A lot of information about Indian Navy and maritime heritage of India can be gained by visiting the museum. We found this museum interesting.
