Brighton Pavilion and Museum

The Pavilion is a large building that looks impressive but when you think it was originally built for one person it is rather obscene as well.

Brighton Palace

The cost of going in to the Palace was rather expensive so we did not into the building.

Entrance fees

  This is the interior a wonderful display of opulence.

Can you imagine sitting here and devouring food like this

The gardens are lovely

The Gardens 

Squirrels are used to people they even pose for a photo

Colin outside the Pavilion there was Graduation Ceremony going on when we were there.

The Museum and Art Gallery are well worth a visit being a lover of all things Ancient Egyptian I really enjoyed their display it was well thought out and informative. 

I just wish the place was not so dark and so warm they need more lighting and air conditioning as it was very stuffy in there.

Egyptian Display

Displays of furniture are well planned out and some of the items are really beautiful.

Why museums seem to think low lighting in various displays make it more atmospheric is beyond me. I know some displays need to be protected from harsh lighting but today you can get lighting that is not going to harm things and allow people to walk around  and read labels easily. We left earlier than we would have as it was far too warm in there some air conditioning would have been nice.
