Brighton, United Kingdom
Recorded as the tiny fishing village of Brithelmeston in the Domesday Book, BRIGHTON seems to have slipped unnoticed through history until
the mid-eighteenth-century sea-bathing trend established a resort that has never looked back. The fad received royal approval in the 1770s
when the decadent Prince Regent, later George IV, began patronizing the town in the company of his mistress, thus setting a precedent for the
"dirty weekend", Brighton's major contribution to the English collective consciousness. Trying to shake off this blowsy reputation, Brighton now
highlights its Georgian charm, its upmarket shops and classy restaurants and its thriving conference industry. Yet, however much Brighton tries
to present itself as a comfortable middle-class town, the essence of its appeal is its faintly bohemian vitality, a buzz that comes from a mix of
English holiday-makers, thousands of young foreign students from the town's innumerable language schools, a thriving gay community and an
energetic local student population from the art college and two universities.
