There was an old DD serial by Shyam Benegal called Amaravati ki kathayein. I think based in this town.

Long lice our friendship

Long lice our friendship

There is definite steady relationship with Japan and India. Even in the cultural aspect, Japan is majority Buddhist - Shinto, a religion that hails from the Indian Subcontinent. That cultural and spiritual bond between India and Japan is there, one that has been part of the Japanese Character for close to 2 millennia now.

Long may our relations and exchange of cultures and peoples continue for 2 more millennia. Nay, 10,000 years !

Yes, I am aware.Amravati district and Amravati division is there .

The ancient name of Maharashtra's Amravati is "Udumbravati", in prakrut, "Umbravati". The variant 'Amravati' is the presently accepted name. It is said that Amravati is named for its ancient Ambadevi templeThe ancient proof of existence of Amravati can get from stone carved inscription on the base of marble statue of God Adinath (Jain God) Rhishabhnath. .

Bhoomi Puja is a ceremony performed to inaugurate a new site for the construction of a home or building. This ceremony is conducted in strict conformance to Vaastu Shastra, the ancient Indian science of structures and architecture.

Vastu shastra is an ancient doctrine which consists of precepts born out of a traditional view on how the laws of nature affect human dwellings. The designs are based on directional alignments. It used to be applied in ancient Indian architecture

Very interesting. It sounds very comparable to Japan's Fusui (the Chinese call it Feng Shui) !

Mizuho Bank to promote Japanese investments in AP - The Hindu
Updated: July 7, 2015 15:14 IST

The State Government has secured a firm commitment from Japan’s Mizuho Bank, a leading global financial institution, for promoting Japanese investments in India, particularly Andhra Pradesh, by leveraging its vast customer base. Mizuho Bank and Sunrise AP, a State-run agency created to facilitate investments in AP, signed a memorandum of understanding on this initiative on Tuesday.

“Mizuho realised that joint cooperation with Sunrise AP will further accelerate Japanese companies’ efforts to promote economic expansion in India, particularly in Andhra Pradesh,” says the MoU signed in the presence of Chief Minister N. Chandrababu Naidu in Japan.

The two agencies will leverage each other’s strengths in order to reach out to companies in Japan interested in business opportunities in Andhra Pradesh. They would collaborate in organising dialogue sessions with Japanese companies, including small and medium-sized enterprises in India and Japan.

The Sunrise AP will facilitate the Mizuho’s client companies that propose to invest in AP by introducing local partners as well as assisting in the implementation of projects. It would also facilitate Mizuho in coordinating with State Government departments for information requirements that are in the public domain and not classified as confidential.

The two firms will organise seminars, dialogue sessions and workshops for attracting Japanese investments in the State.

The Chief Minister invited Mizuho Bank’s managing executive officer Tatsufumi Sakai to set up the company’s India headquarters in Amaravati and a back office in Andhra Pradesh. “We are planning to make our capital a financial hub,” Mr. Naidu said.
