Royal Pavilion
Outside is inspired by Royal India, inside has notes of Chinese opulence, and it’s all wrapped up in decadent Regency grandeur. This 19th-century seaside ‘pleasure palace’ in the heart of Brighton is nothing short of dramatic. Built for the future playboy monarch, King George IV, it mashes tradition with eccentricity for an eye-opening visit that shouldn’t be missed.
