Royal Pavilion, Brighton

The Royal Pavilion was built in stages as a seaside retreat for George, Prince of Wales, later King George IV (1762 – 1830). In 1787 the designer Henry Holland was employed to enlarge the original building. Between 1815 and 1822 the designer John Nash redesigned and further extended the Pavilion, and it is mainly the work of Nash that can be seen today. The palace looks very striking in the middle of Brighton due to its Indian exterior appearance.
