Hello fellow Steemians,
I hope you are all having a great day! :) As usually, I am here with my daily photo challenge where you can submit your personal images from your travels to Prague and other locations in the Czech Republic in the comment section below.
The best 15 entries of the day will get my upvote. I will then pick the absolute winner of the day from these 15 photos. The winning photo will be awarded with a bigger upvote and it will also be featured as the cover image for the challenge post the next day to give the author of the winning shot some more exposure and publicity.
Don’t forget to add a short background story for your entry with at least 30 words and let me just remind you one more time that only personal images will be accepted in the challenge.
There were many great entries submitted in the yesterday Prague/Czech Republic photo challenge and I had a hard time picking the best one. After a deliberate consideration, however, I decided to choose the following entry by @jlgc:
The Old Town Tower is the gateway to Malá Strana through the Charles Bridge. This medieval tower, considered one of the best examples of Gothic architecture in Europe, was for centuries the only way to access this part of the city, protecting the east side of the Charles Bridge. It is the most touristic place in the city of Prague and the most beautiful for tourists.

I took this Picture at the Wallenstein Garden in Prague. This is a really beatiful place and a most-go if you are visiting this great city. In the back of the fountain you see a strange wall. I made plenty photos of that wall and i will show them here during the next week or so...
Absolutely agreed, great place to visit for sure.....
This is Děčín, a town in the Ústí nad Labem Region in the north of the Czech Republic. The town has a beautiful location in the valley of the Elbe river and its elevation is one of the lowest in the country (c. 130m). Děčín is furthermore surrounded by beautiful and diverse landscapes such as the Bohemian Uplands, the Bohemian National Park and Elbe Sandstone Mountains. Nearby, there is an important border crossing of the Elbe Valley railway en route to Dresden in Germany. Within the town, there is a nice castle and old town bridge to view.
Fabulous entry that deserves to be featured as an introduction post to today´s challnge! Have a great night. Tomas
Thanks so much Tomas! :)
You might know that the Charles Bridge and some other places in the historic center of Prague are popular among couples who attach love locks to them. What you might not know though is the fact that local maintenance service has to remove the locks regularly as they get too heavy and can pose a risk to the whole structures. This shot was taken shortly after the removal as there are that not many love locks.
Hmmm, very interesting.... so mine is gone, LOL.... so is the girl... Now I know why, haha.....
Hi! As so as yesterday I published photo of Pague at night time, today I decided to turn time back, and to share with you one of my photos of the main water artery of Prague - Vltava river at sunset time.

it seems to me it is the rays of the setting sun that give Vltava its charm and splendor. As if there were no those centuries during which there is a city on its banks, and it seems as though the river is clean and only originated from a creek and ahead of it a great future awaits!
To this day, I chose Loket Castle, which lies in the town of Loket nad Ohří. This town is located in western Bohemia near Karlovy Vary. If you visit Karlovy Vary, do not forget to visit the town of Loket. It is definitely worth it. The history dates back to the 12th century.To this day, I chose Loket Castle, which lies in the town of Loket nad Ohří. This town is located in western Bohemia near Karlovy Vary.

CHARLES BRIDGE(Karluv Most)- PRAGUE
This bridge with giant statues amazes you with the combination of Vlatava River! Especially, early in the morning during sunrise, the atmosphere is so nice and the light is perfect for photography! :) Hope you'll like it!
This was a photo session at 7 a.m. on a Sunday in 2016 at the Charles Bridge. The weather was at 6 degrees Celsius and it was very windy. The photos will look good, but I felt sorry for the girls who were freezing. The photographer if he was totally covered. Like the girls looked beautiful.
Exquisite beauty of the Spanish SynagogueI always admire these colors, decorations and architectural details😍. This Synagogue got its name from Moorish style. One of the beautiful synagogue in Europe. The musical events in the Spanish Synagogue are highly praised in the field of chamber classical concerts in Prague.
Kutná Hora. A huge temple. Sweeping arches. Semi-darkness. And no one people. This creates an atmosphere that is difficult to sense with a large crowd of people. For me, this is one of the main reasons to travel freely alone or with pair of friends. Try to get into opposition with most people. Create your own adventure.
Stunning pic!
Thank you Tomas.
I like it too)
Prague, one of the most beautiful cities in Central Europe, is a city that must be visited and visited with its magnificent atmosphere. You can easily visit this extraordinary city by organizing your own trip, which is the way I like and prefer more as you can see this beautiful city with Central European tours organized in our country.
Prague's Old Town Square is the oldest and most active spot in Prague, covering an area of 1.7 hectares. Located between Celetna and Staromestske namesti, the square is at the top of our list of places to visit in Prague. This gothic, Renaissance, baroque and neoclassical place is visited by tourists as well as the places to see and see, as well as human traffic and various shows that do not end day and night.
It is very enjoyable to watch the street demonstrators in the old city square, to sit and relax in the street cafes and restaurants. You can watch the hustle and bustle of the square by climbing to the top of the Old Town Hall where the Dilersen Astronomical Clock is located.
Prague Old Town Square is a place that has witnessed many important histories from the execution of Protestant leaders in the 17th century to the attacks of Soviet tanks in 1968. There are countless buildings and works you need to see in the Old Town Square, where the heart of the city is thrown and your soul is reflected. Astronomical Clock and Old Town Hall, Dum u Minuty House dating from 1611, which was inhabited by Franz Kafka for a while, Stone Canyon House, built with Baroque architecture and temporary exhibitions of the municipal gallery, was built as a simple church in the 14th century, the Church of the Virgin Mary in front of Tyn, the Jan Hus Monument in the name of Hus, who was told to change the church in 1415 and burnt for what they did, and the Marian Column, which was planned to be rebuilt in 1918 and destined for the independence of Czechoslovakia in 1918, is located behind the Tyn Church Storch House, which is known as the Ungelt patron of the area, Saint Vaclav 's painting, Golz - Kinsky Palace which was occupied by the communists for a while, the well in the middle of the small plaza and Male Namesti, the monument of plague are some of the most important structures you can see here.
