Brighton, England, is just bursting with things to do! Attractions range from walking on the beautiful beaches of Brighton or joining in some beachfront sports to visiting the Royal Pavilion, the summer home of British royalty for many years.
What is Brighton most known for? Why, it?s beaches of course! Brighton Beach is one of the Top 10 city beach attraction destinations in the world. And when you?re done with the fun in the sun, head to Brighton Pier, right in back of the beach for a cool drink at a beachside club. Relax on the pebble beach, take a stroll along the strand, have a bite to eat in one of the many cafes and bars or join in some water sports or go sailing. After dark, you?ll be able to partake in the action of some of the best night clubs in the UK.
Now, the Royal Pavilion. It is the fabulous ?Palace by the Sea? of the Prince Regent, George IV. Built by John Nash, between 1815 and 1822, it remains one of the most spectacular and exotic of all buildings in the UK. You will see furniture and art, including pieces lent by Her Majesty the Queen. There is a tearoom overlooking the gardens and a shop. Audio Guides in many languages are available.
Right beside of Brighton beach you will find acres and acres of cool, green, inviting spaces within the towns of Brighton and Hove. A must visit is the historic Kipling Gardens in Rottingdean. Rudyard Kipling lived at The Elms from 1897-1902 ? the site of these famous gardens. Visit the herb garden and the croquet lawn and bring a picnic to eat in the ?wild garden”.
All told, there are 14,000 acres in the Brighton and Hove area that have been awarded National Park status in recognition of the beauty of the South Downs. Go for a bike ride or a walk and enjoy the local plants and wildlife. It is a place of peace and quiet right near the activity of the beaches and night life.
Brighton is the place to be in England, not only in the summer but all the other seasons as well. Brighton Pier, for example, is only closed one day a year ? Christmas Day. Make a point of spending your next holiday in Brighton. You won?t be sorry that you did!
