Brighton, a famous holiday town next to the sea in Sussex, on the southeast coast of England, is only 50 minutes on a fast train from London. The town usually has about 134, 000 citizens(市民), but it gets a lot of tourists all year round.
A long time ago, Brighton was a quiet fishing town. Later on, when swimming in the sea became popular, many rich and important people, as well as musicians and writers began to arrive and Brighton became a popular seaside holiday town.
Prince George, the future King George IV, first visited Brighton in
1783. He liked it and spent part of the summer there because of his poor health. He asked John Nash, a very famous builder, to build him a palace. It took about 40 years to build the palace and it cost 500, 000 pounds! Now more than 400, 000 tourists visit Brighton and the palace—the Royal Pavilion every year.
The Royal Pavilion, with its beautiful rooms and museums, is not the only interesting thing in Brighton. In May, this friendly and colourful town holds an international(国际的)festival with many different kinds of music, dance and theatre.
