Brighton
& Hove
Brighton is one of the most exciting cities in the UK if
not Europe! Close to the capital (on the south coast of England,
approximately 80km south of London), it has excellent links
to the heart of London by train and coach (approximately 50
minutes by train), but is evidently more relaxed.It is often
referred to as London-by-Sea because of the lively vibrant
atmosphere.
The architecture is magnificent with the world famous Palace
Pier and Royal Pavilion, just some of the attractions to thousands
of visitors and students that come on a yearly basis, not
to mention the array of spacious parks, walks and beauty spots.
Brighton has a very European feel, with a cafe' culture,
beachfront bars, and a vast array of restaurants offering
everything from European to Asian cuisine, all adding to its
cosmopolitan feel.
Packed with both national and international students, Brighton
boasts two Universities and offers a huge variety of shops
with a good mix of both old and new buildings.
