Brighton
Sussex, United Kingdom
Brighton is a historic seaside town in Sussex, United Kingdom, with origins dating back to the Saxon era when it was known as Beorhthelm's farm.
Originally a small fishing village called Brighthelmstone, it began transforming into a fashionable health resort in the 18th century after Dr. Richard Russell promoted the benefits of sea bathing. The town’s popularity soared further when George, the Prince of Wales (later George IV), frequented Brighton, commissioning John Nash to build the iconic Royal Pavilion.
By the 19th century, Brighton evolved into a major seaside resort known for its elegant architecture, piers, and vibrant social scene. Today, it combines its historic charm with a lively cultural atmosphere, attracting visitors for its beaches, festivals, arts, and diverse community.
