And for a unique experience, visit the Brighton Toy and Model Museum - you'll find all sorts of fascinating things there.

What attractions is Brighton famous for?

Brighton's famous for its iconic Brighton Pier, a Victorian amusement park with rides and arcades. The Royal Pavilion, a stunning palace built by King George IV, is another must-see. And of course, you can't miss the pebbled beach, perfect for a stroll or a spot of sunbathing.
