This is the Royal Pavilion. Basically, it was George IV's pleasure palace. He built this for his trips to Brighton to entertain his friends with elaborate parties. It's very much influenced by Indian palaces and the interior has rooms with different Asian themes. It's stunning inside, but unfortunately they were really strict about photos. When Queen Victoria came to the throne, she didn't like it because the trains made Brighton much more touristy and the palace was too small for her many children... for a royal family anyway. I seriously want to live there... prettiest palace I've ever been to.
