Royal Pavilion, Brighton, UK |
The Royal Pavilion is a former royal residence located in Brighton, England. It was built in three campaigns, beginning in 1787, as a seaside retreat for George, Prince of Wales, from 1811 Prince Regent. It is often referred to as the Brighton Pavilion. It is built in the Indo-Saracenic style prevalent in India for most of the 19th century, with the most extravagant chinoiserie interiors ever executed in the British Isles.
當時剛到英國,對任何事情都是又新鮮又好奇,當下看到時,心裡是充滿一堆問號:這裡怎麼會有個又像俄羅斯城堡,又像阿拉伯城堡的建築物?
從它的英文來看,Pavilion可以翻譯為”涼亭“ ”閣“ 或 ”(尖頂)大帳篷“
Royal Pavilion 就直接稱呼它為 ”皇宮“吧!不然叫”皇家涼亭“或”皇家大帳篷“真的頗怪!
像這樣外型特別的皇宮,當然就成為Brighton的知名地標,連上語文課時,這座皇宮的介紹和歷史也被拿來當作教材。其實這座皇宮,簡單來講,就是當時威爾斯的年輕新國王喬治四世,度假玩樂用的行宮,因為天高皇帝遠,不但被他用來躲避當時位於倫敦的皇室操控,也成為他金屋藏嬌的地方,在他這樣每天開趴玩樂的帶動下,Brighton也成為當時最流行的慾望城市,想要有個“Dirty Weekend",來這邊就對了!
它的外觀就是設計成印度風格,不過內部設計卻又受到中國影響,帶有東方色彩,算是異國文化融合的代表建築物。
本來一直想趁畢業前進去參觀,可是進去過的同學都說很普通,為了省錢,我也就打消進去瞧瞧的念頭,不過每回有親朋好友來探望我,我也是必帶他們到這裡照相,可以說是Brighton必遊的景點之一。
繞到皇宮的側邊,就會看到入口處,進去之前的右邊商店就是皇宮的紀念品店喔,買票也是要先在紀念品店買:
進去後,就能看到皇宮的另外一面,也是進去參觀的入口處:
皇宮前方其實是個小公園,平常有許多曬太陽的人,我發現外國人真的超愛曬太陽,夏天草地上總是坐滿了人,不像台灣草地總是“禁止踐踏草皮“
也有街頭藝人在這邊表演
皇宮和皇宮的後花園都很美
