Along the seafront, Brighton Beach and its colourful beach huts create an inviting atmosphere for beachgoers, who can enjoy the sea breeze and local delicacies like fish and chips. One of Brighton’s most striking landmarks is the Royal Pavilion, with its extraordinary Indo-Saracenic architecture and lavish interiors, highlighting the city’s unique historical ties to royalty. Nearby, the Pavilion Gardens offer a serene place to relax amid the lively city. For shopping enthusiasts, the North Laine is a must-visit, brimming with quirky boutiques, vintage stores, and independent art galleries, while The Lanes, with their narrow alleyways, charm visitors with jewelers, antiques, and cozy eateries. The city’s culinary scene is equally impressive, featuring everything from sustainable, plant-based restaurants to global cuisine and trendy food markets.
