Nestled between the South Downs and the sea on south coast, Brighton has a mix of iconic attractions, adventure activities and arts and culture. Walk by the gorgeous Brighton Marina. At the beach, you can opt to have traditional fun (swimming, snoozing, sandcastle building) or take a guided MP3 Brighton walk.<\/p>\n<p>You can also go sailing, orbing, play basketball and volleyball, or go extreme mountain boarding. Check out the Royal Pavilion (a former royal palace built as a home for the Prince Regent and renowned for its Indo-Saracenic architecture and Oriental interior), the Regency architecture and Victorian aquariums. The Brighton Pier has a funfair, restaurants and arcade halls. The seafront is abuzz with bars, restaurants, nightclubs and amusement areas.<\/p>\n<p>Step into the Brighton Artists Quarter (on the beach, between the two piers) where you can view and buy artworks. If in the city in May, check out the Brighton Festival, an arts festival. Visit the 11th century St. Nicholas Church (the oldest building in Brighton), St. Bartholomew&#8217;s, the Brighton &amp; Hove Progressive Synagogue, and Friends&#8217; Meeting House (a place of worship for the Quaker Community). Stop off at the Hove Museum and Art Gallery for a dose of culture. Nearby lies the beautiful Sussex countryside, complete with castles, forts, country houses, parks, and gardens.
