Places worth visiting
A selection to start dreaming and organizing the stay — not an exhaustive list of everything there is to see.
Palace
Royal Pavilion
The Royal Pavilion stands out for an original architecture, with exotic shapes and decorative details that transform each room. The site understands itself by observing the exterior-inner composition, then coming in to see how light and volume respond. It works well on a slow visit.
Discarded
Brighton Palace Pier
The Brighton Palace Pier The British urban coast is the embodiment of its sounds, views and social dynamism. The pleasure comes from the return journey between structure and shore, where each crossing gives a different light on the sea. It is an effective stop to feel the breath of the Brighton and Hove.
Neighbourhood
The Lanes
The Lanes is a neighborhood of intimate passages, discreet shops and preserved buildings that impose a slow pace. The alleyways invite you to walk around and give a fine reading of the city by the density of the details. Brighton is understood in its daily life, not only by its seaside front.
