The Royal Pavilion

Brighton is located directly south of London on the English coast. The town is about an hours journey by train. It has a vital culture and many of the English travel to Brighton during the summer months for rocky beaches, good night life and good eating and dining. The name of the town literally means Bright Town.

Brighton also happened to be the Summer home of The Prince Regent who later became George IV in the late 18th century. The Prince fell in love with Brighton after visiting for the sea air that he was told might help with his Gout. He also used Brighton as a place to get away with his Catholic mistress whom he might have married in secret. The Prince Regent was fascinated by eastern architecture, particularly that of India. That is why his summer home, known as the Royal Pavilion, somewhat resembles the Taj Mahal. The entire city has this style of architecture running through it. Blended with a theme park, boardwalk and a spectacular Victorian flats it makes for a fascinating place to visit.
