My answer to What should I do with a week in Brighton, UK? on Quora

Make sure you go inside the Pavilion—it’s marvellous. The outside imitates an Indian temple, but the inside (for some reason) is entirely inspired by China. Both aspects were constructed by British workmen who had never been to either, so it’s a fabulous over-the-top representation of 18th century stereotypes of those countries.

It’s also full of dragons, including an 8ft high one holding up a chandelier.
