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 @haxi:

Beautiful old city, Cesky Krumlov. A gem in the central area of the country. The river flowing through, the split of the city, the old streets. Very nice and quiet place with lots of offer. This is a walk in the past in the most beautiful old town, pebblestone walks and stunning views make it fantastic.

The hike around vyhlidka maj and smetanova vyhlidka is really pleasant. The views of the delta of the Vltava are really special! Amazing view and there are less people than on Maj so you can really enjoy it. Wonderful place overlooking the river.

That sure is a spectacular place for a day out that not many international tourists would know about. Great as a main entry for today's contest.

French-style park and orangery with many tropical and subtropical fruit species found next to the Radun Chateau. Located just a few kilometers outside of the Silesian town of Opava, in a village of the same name (Radun), the Radun Chateau is a majestic chateau that was built in the 14th century.

Prague is also a city of parks and orchards. It is not just a tourist town. Even about 1,300,000 "natives" go to nature, culture, and entertainment. Especially on summer holidays there are various events and festivals.
And in the current summer heat it's nice to just go to the shade on the lawn somewhere under the trees.

Lom Velká Amerika
The truly excellent scenery of this most beautiful quarry in the area probably captivates every visitor. The main tunnel to the quarry is long-term closed, apparently for safety reasons, because the walls of the quarry are slowly glowing and there is a risk of landslides falling down the road in the quarry. Still, this quarry will be overwhelmed by its size and depth.

This Gothic stone fountain on Rejsek Squar in Kutna Hora was built in 1493 by the architect Matěj Rejsek. Matěj Rejsek also worked on the Church of St. Barbara, another landmark is this epic little town.

Very large square in the middle of the old town with the world-famous carillon. Many cafes and restaurants invite you to linger. But beware of the prices. They often have "world level" here. Frequently markets (Christmas / Easter) or concerts are held. You should have seen it. But there are more important sights in Prague.

St. Barbara's Church, Kutná Hora
A magnificent cathedral in Kutna Hora with equally beautiful views opening from it to the city. The cathedral is interesting both from the interior and exterior viewpoints. Beautiful temple in a wonderful place.

Old Town Prague
I fell in love quickly in Prague, and especially in Stare Mesto - simply because history and present unite so great. Here, there is not much "see but do not touch", you are invited to explore all the details without being forced to do anything. Can not actually find something I dislike.

Dancing House
It's located across the vltava river. A very unique and remarkable building. The most significant thing about it is how different it looks from the old town texture. Locals don't admire but it's a beautiful building. It's a must see not only in Prague but all around the world. It's a rare example of experimental architecture.

The St. Nicholas Church is special, its doors with a very touching, huge story in high relief, very much but very good even as everything in Prague. From outside I could imagine what I was going to feel when I entered, it's magnificent, that sums it up, the words are superfluous.
