Hello fellow Steemians,
I hope you are all having a great weekend! :) 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 @nenio:
Photo of an interesting piece of architecture in Prague. The image shows the door and its decorative elements in Art Deco and including some sculptures. Prague is one of the few cities where you can find some different architecture styles son near. In the window next of the door there is a reflection of a neo-barroque building.

Litoměřice is a district town lying on the river Elbe in the Ústí nad Labem Region. Earlier it used to be a royal town and today is the center of the town monument zone, with an area of 44 streets. Fact that the city lies at the foot of the Czech Central Mountains and from some places overlooks the Elbe lowlands in the south of the city.
What an amazing image and location to be featured to start off the week! Thank you so much for your participation! Tomas
This was a really pretty birch tree in the park by my house. I thought it was really cool to see a tree that is common in my state on the other side of the world. I also thought it was interesting because of how vastly different it is from the surrounding trees and environment.
That is old town square praque czech republic. Beautiful square in the heart of Prague. Easy access to St. Charles Bridge and Prague Castle from here. Lots to do and see around the square. Definitely try the street vendors for food and drink. Very picturesque at night.
Slaný
Neo-Renaissance building of the Old Town Hall, nowadays seat of the Municipal police and Art Gallery, is one of landmarks of main public space of town Slaný - Masaryk Square. The town is part of the Prague metropolitan area.
Mikulov, picture taken from a car (was not a driver). You can see Mikulov Chateau and piece of Church of saint Vaclav. It is cultural Czech monument. It was probably built in 12th century. Well, actually they started building it in 12th century but it was finished in 1640.
St. Barbara's Church, Kutná Hora
I was on a tour of the Church of St. Barbara. The Cathedral is in a place with beautiful nature. Around a lot of greenery. It is a very elegant Gothic Cathedral. The Cathedral has a very original blue roof. Also during the tour we went inside. Inside the Cathedral is very huge and majestic.
Yep, truly stunning place! Absolutely must visit on a day trip out of Prague.
Biggest castle in the world. Castello de praga, Prague Castle is one the most beautiful place in the wotld. It is a castle in its walls are fortified that shield the, but its also a, and more. It dominates the Prague skyline its position high a hill and the vast St. vitus Cathedral centrepiece.
This wonderful place at český krumlov. Czech cities and villages are gems in a treasure chest with Cesky Krumlov at the top. It’s just amazing, take a inner tube down the river that wraps itself around the city, just float through the city. The hotels are amazing, we loved baroko , slept in a 600 year old building, just amazing. The grounds like a walk through a movie set, thought we would see a King or a Princess and funny enough we did as they were shooting a movie there. Cesky Krumlov is a must see.
Oh, it sure is! Truly magnificent.
If you have the time, I suggest visiting small unknown cities, you might be surprised. There's many small towns with beautiful houses, squares, castles that you have probably never heard of. The photo below is of Moravska Trebova Castle. Nice, isnt't it?

Nice? I don't think so.... I would say stunning:)
It s a place in the old town that is definitely worth a try. Make sure you can explore all the streets around and find all the different corners and crannys - there are some fabulous bars and shops to be found away from the main tourist areas. The food and drinks on the square are delicious, and you do not need to go far to find more authentic dishes.
read about the history of the place to truly understand the meaning of importance to the people of Prague.
