                <description><![CDATA[The Booth Museum Brighton is a small quirky little gem of a museum for kids and grown ups alike. It was built in 1874 by an ornothologist to house his collection of stuffed British birds, but the collection grew to over half a million specimens from the rest of the the world. Currently on show there is Life in Death: The Victorian Art of Taxidermy, an exhibition highlighting the popularity of taxidermy in the 19th century.<br><br>It's an excellent, unusual, and sometimes slightly creepy view of animals in glass boxes a good way to spend an afternoon, and best of all it's free!<br><br>Not located in the centre of town but opposite a large park also easy to park the car or coach nearby (unlike the rest of Brighton ). When you are done looking at the exhibits you can let loose in the park across the road.]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[I feel very lucky to live close to The Foredown Tower,  which is home to one of only two operational camera obscuras in South East England. A camera obscura is an unusual optical device that is used to observe the landscape, sun and sky.<br><br>The building, an Edwardian water tower built in 1909, is of architectural interest and has been converted with considerable care to preserve many original features.]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[Really worth a visit!  The Royal Pavilion is in the centre of Brighton set in beautiful gardens. Built for The Prince Regent, the architect Nash turned in into the Indian style building that exists today from 1815-23.  The entrance price includes an audio guide to tell the story of the lavish interiors and the parties that took place!  The banqueting room is extraordinary!  Children can take part in the 'Dragon Quest' during this summer holiday too and 'tame the dragons' - lots of fun for the family.]]></description>
