Places That You Should Visit in Brighton

Before I start my discussion with you all, Let me first introduce with Churchill Brighton Guest House (Fun, Relaxed and Friendly....)

I had really great positive experience with them.

A fantastically presented Guest House in the heart of Brighton, one of the UK’s finest cities. It is a Grade 11 listed building built in 1825, owned by father and son, Martin and Ashley Culverhouse.

The bedrooms are all individually presented in an understated, elegant style and are en-suites, with flat screen TVs, free WiFi, extra comfy beds and blackout window treatments.

I already joined them at Facebook also - https://www.facebook.com/pages/Churchill-Brighton/334972976520637

Brighton is a tourist city fifty miles south of London on England's south coast. It's a popular destination for visitors from the capital and across the world due to it's relaxed, informal nature, restaurants and nightclub scene.

Brighton has a wide range of drinking establishments from sophisticated wine bars, to traditional English pubs and happy hour specials so you are very unlikely to go thirsty in this town. This is complemented by restaurants for every taste, from takeaway and fast food for post drinking session munchies, to Spanish tapas and vegan curries.

As Brighton is a coastal city, it's only right to mention it's beach. If you're looking for lots of beautiful sand, you'll be sadly disappointed as it's populated mainly by pebbles, unless the tide is particularly low. However, it's also home to many beach front bars, nightclubs, a relaxed atmosphere, and free wi-fi internet between the Palace Pier and the old West Pier, thanks to a local community group.

The beach has been used for free film showings, and two live music events featuring DJ Fat Boy Slim, who lives nearby in Hove.

The only survivor of three piers built in Brighton, the Palace Pier opened in 1899 to house amusements and allow pleasure craft to take on passengers. It currently holds several amusement arcades, small shops for tourists, restaurants, nightclub and a small fun fair. In 2000 the name of the pier was changed to 'Brighton Pier' by it's owners, which caused some controversy as this is the official name of Brighton's West Pier, which was mooted for restoration at the time.

A visit to the pier is a must for it's kitsch attractions, and the view of the seafront available from the promenade.

You will see a lot of families in Brighton, which is testament to the fact that it is a safe, clean and secure environment. Kids in particular have a great time there. They enjoy playing on the beach, going on the fairground rides, eating candy floss, buying fun souvenirs and watching the shows. If you have kids of your own, then you can rest assured that Brighton is not a place that they will get bored at.

Enjoy Your Travelling With Beijing Airport Layover

First of all, about my positive experience with Beijing Airport Layover Tours.

Yes, I enjoyed a lot. Beijing Airport Transit is the best activity for you to choose from if you have plenty of transit hours in Beijing. They offer wide range of Beijing airport layover tour which enables you to choose the best Beijing attractions that you wish to visit. 



Everyday thousands of travelers sit for hours in Beijing airport , waiting for their flight out, to leave or arrive. Beijing layover time doesn't have to be wasted time. It can be one of the most exciting parts of the trip.

Most of Beijing's iconic sights are located in a fairly small geographic area.

Beijing  layover tours are a real bargain, especially when you consider the savings in airfare and hotel if one were to make a special trip just to visit Beijing. Often, travelers have to pay for transfers anyway.

Tiananmen Square is reputed to be the largest urban plaza in the world, with a stated capacity of 600,000 people, each to his own checkerboard square. Geometrically, the square is large enough to accommodate 1,687 tennis courts.

The creation of Tiananmen Square was, evidently, part of a greater strategic urban plan. In 1958, the historian C. P. Fitzgerald had observed in his Flood Tide in China:

The purpose of an imperial city was to enshrine the palace, which indeed occupied a very large part of the whole walled enclosure.... Wide straight streets ran from north to south and east to west, streets far wider than the traffic of the age required/ a fact which has fortunately saved Peking from the sad necessity of demolishing many ancient buildings to accommodate the traffic of modern times. The purpose of this design was probably not so much a qeomantic requirement as a measure of military precaution.

When you find yourself facing a longer than expected layover in the airport, think about it positively. Use the time to have fun with your kids - and be a kid yourself again!
