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 @liltammy:

Close-up view of the Petrin Lookout Tower, a huge steel-framework observation tower that was built on the top of the Petrin Hill in 1891, originally as a transmission tower. These days, however, the Petrin Tower mainly serves as a tourist attraction with more than a half a million visitors annually.

This is probably a view you haven't seen that often: taken from my drone above Charles Bridge for a 5:00am sunrise. This was taken after a night out where my friends stayed asleep and I elected to stay up. I was shattered, but this view was oh so worth it.

it would be splendid if you could update your commentary to about 30 words at least ~ so that this magnificent imagine has a chance to be in the contest ~ ✨ ~ !
{- since same is a requirement as stated in the description of the contest -}

Oh sorry! will edit now :)

This is probably one of the most photographed views in Prague but it is very hard (if not impossible) to get tired of that :) Two of Prague´s most famous landmarks - the Prague Castle and the Charles Bridge in one photo.

Heat is now in the Czech Republic. But there are places where you can cool down. Gorge around watercourses, for example.
This is a protected area full of pools, wetlands and ponds. It's raining here more often than in the rest of the country.

Historic Center of Cesky Krumlov
A great way to send some time. Lots of tourist traps but well worth it. All the building are from hundreds of years ago. The town is beautiful especially if you see it from the Castle. The river is like a belt around the town, and the painting on the walls are quite unique.

Pilsner Urquell Brewery
If you’re in Pilsen you can’t miss the brewery tour! Find out why the people are so proud of their beer! If you like pilsen beer, how can you not get to know the real Pilsner beer?
By doing the visit you understand how they can make such an exclusive product.
If you have been to other breweries, when visiting this you understand why Pilsen Urquell is unique.

Havelske trziste (in English Havelsky Market), the only preserved market place in Prague's Old Town dating back to 1232. It offers a large selection of fresh fruits and vegetables and on weekends mainly tourist items.

View of the Petrin Lookout Tower, made with huge steel-framework observation tower that was built on the top of the Petrin Hill in 1891.
Tower is a 63.5-metre-tall. The design is great work of engineering.

Part of the back benches to Balzerovo lying, or Tetřevna. This place is located near Jetřichovice in Bohemian-Saxon under the rock overhang. There are a few benches with motifs of Grouse. There are a lot of German inscriptions on the walls, and in the winter months the icicles are on the ceiling.

Sedlec Ossuary
This is a truly macabre spectacle to behold. It is rather small but exceedingly beautiful for the majesty of using human bones as decorations and adornments on an ancient church. All that being said this is done in a tasteful and remarkable way and is quite beautiful.

Bolevák pláž Ostende
Probably the best camp in Plzeň. Nice place for camping, just outside the city center. Amazing camp with helpfull receptionist. Lot of trees, beautiful beach with free parasols and chairs.
nice location at the lake, not far from city centre.
