I felt very pleasant in this station and food is good and tasty, clock room facility available, vehicle paid parking is more than bus stand paid parking is 6 hours 12 rs charge

It is an important railway junction in AP. They didn't bother to put the main name plate of Vijaywada on Telugu or Hindi, apart from English name plate. But, how come they have put it on Urdu? Is it in Pakistan or what?

From my observation, this station stands out as the largest, offering numerous connections to various cities and states, thus facilitating convenient travel. The station's premises are well-maintained and clean, although there is room for improvement in the track areas. The infrastructure is commendable, with impressive details at the entrance and straightforward navigation to platforms. However, there's a need for better maintenance of escalators and lifts, especially considering the large crowds that frequent this station.

Some one told me it is one of the busiest railway station but still Well maintained, food available but food prices are expensive side, find no security or no luggage scanner. Auto and buses are available outside platform no. 1

It has been continuing as the most busiest railway station from many decades. This railway station is known for its good food options. Bread omlet used to be the most popular item previously, now a days it's losing it's charm. Bananas are available almost all the time in the day. There are couple of good food points which will give takeaway options. The Gayatri book stall in platform 1 will be open from morning 11am to 5:30pm, if anyone interested in purchasing some books to wait for a connecting train. The general waiting hall is an open space with many chairs and it is never deserted. There's no upper class AC waiting hall, they have changed it to prepaid AC WAITING HALL SEPARATE ladies waiting hall is also not visible. They might have changed or trying to renovate. There's cloak room facility for keeping luggage. Overall there's no issue of safety even for single passengers.

One of the Busiest Railways Station in the South and One of the Largest in Andhra Pradesh, Vijayawada Junction Railway station has Got the Best Connectivity across all cities in AP. Coming to Maintenance, It is Decent. The Platforms seem Okay. Need Major Improvements towards the Later Platforms like 6,7,8,9 and 10.

Although the train stopped at no 4 platform but I did not find much of the food halls or restaurant or food shops .. I see only people selling packed food here .. and yes you can for sure purchase fresh fruits here but that too very costly than the usual ...like 2 banans for 20 rupees and so .. so it's upto people how they go ahead here ... rest station is good with good cleanliness.. all gone good train usually stops here for 15 minutes.

One of the best railway stations in this country. All the facilities available at Platform no.1 and 10.

The expenditure of the railway station is too good. You witness the space around you and the comfort of platform structure and Maintaining the same aura to all the 10 platforms is really amazing.

Gets train to every part of India. Maintenance is good. In center of the city. Biggest railway station. Can go the place by cab, bus and bikes.

Indian railways trying to keep the station well maintained & hygienic but due to huge crowd floating there is a gap for maintenance need to improve in maintenance *Vijayawada junction is hard core mid point for the each part of the destination *Almost every trian will try to stop over here I think its little small station compare to crowd utilisation need to expand little big *U can find multiple entries for the station If you want to reach out to platform 4,5 better option to enter near through the parcel office gate *Bike parking is available not sure about the car parking Overall experience-4/5

Not so well maintained... No cleanliness... Most of the pipes and platforms are broken... Floors are not cleaned in a year... It's a crowded station without cleanliness... Shops are available on all platforms.. Don't expect much from this station...

I travelled and crossed this station after more than 10 years... improvement in cleanliness is visible and lot of food stalls are upgraded and new chains are added.Still lot of improvement can be done👍
