Brighton Royal Pavilion

The Royal Pavilion is a former royal residence located in Brighton, England. It was built in three campaigns, beginning in 1787, as a seaside retreat for George, Prince of Wales, from 1811 Prince Regent. It is often referred to as the Brighton Pavilion. It is built in the Indo-Saracenic style prevalent in India for most of the 19th century, with the most extravagant chinoiserie interiors ever executed in the British Isles.

Under the Brighton Wheel

Yesterday I drove along the south coast from Portsmouth, passing through Bognor Regis, Worthing etc taking some snaps along the way. I ended up back in Brighton for a last stroll as the Sun came down. Took this nice photo under the Brighton wheel and timed it just right as a young family walked by.
