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 @justdothat:
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.

Prague is a great base for all low-cost travelers who want to visit other European countries!

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.
That is some wonderful information with this iconic image. It will make a great entry post for today's challenge. Thank you so much. Tomas
Who said you cannot take a nice cityscape photo on a cloudy grey winter day? At least in Prague, you can :) This is a panoramic shot of the Prague Castle with the Legii Bridge in the foreground. I didn’t even have to put the black and white filter on it, there were simply no colors that day :)
Yep, this is just a pure example of it! Great job.
For today´s contest, I choose a landscape. This wooden cottage is called "Dlaskuv statek". The farm is part of the Turnov Museum of Bohemian Paradise. It is located between the Dolánky train stop and the river Jizera.
Great to see a very traditional image. Thank you so much. Tomas
Thank you!
I myself am not particularly fond of riding. But it is impossible to pass such a couple in the center of Prague. I tried many times for such pictures. But in most cases I was not lucky with the light. But here it turned out. The horses just got in a narrow light strip.
That is so cute! I think this would easily qualify for the Valentine's Day contest:).....

I wanted to find a more suitable photo for this contest)
Hi! today I'd like to share with you my photo of The Metropolitan Cathedral of Saints Vitus, Wenceslaus and Adalbert wich was taken at night time.

If talk about me this cafedral one of most "must visited place" as I think! That's why every time when I come to Prague I go for a walk near this place with my companions. So was and at that time when we came to Prague with one of my friends! We took the boat and walked down the Vltava from where I took this photo.
Petrov is hill in the center of Brno, the second largest city in the Czech Republic. You can find here Saint Peter and Saint Paul Cathedral, Denisovy Sady park and others. It is nice place for walks but unfortunately there is always a lot of tourists. Well… not always. Not at night. You can see for yourself how amazingly Petrov looks at night. Everybody must admit that it is really an amazing piece of architecture.
Absolutely agreed, a great place to visit!
Prague is incredible. And it has so many amazing places that look great on camera. Like this one! I think everyone knows this place and everyone visited it at least once while they were visiting Prague. I really like this picture and think it would be an awesome postcard :)
This is the beautiful castle of Nové Město nad Metují, a small town in the Hradec Králové region in the north of the Czech Republic. I've been told the translation for the town's name is "New Town on the Metuje" which is because the old town and the castle sit on a spur in a meander of the river Metuje. The castle has beautiful gardens, and to get to them you enter via a walkway bridge designed by famous Slovak architect Dušan Jurkovič. In 2008, the area of Nové Město castle became listed as a national monument of the Czech Republic. For me, it marked one of the highlights of my trip through the country.
Wonderful entry! Thank you so much for your contribution. Tomas
Fluffy clouds over Prague
The sky was beautiful, and the scenery was breathtaking. I will never forget that moment it's going to stay with me forever. This picture was taken at the Garden on the Ramparts of Prague castle.
That is such a beautiful image! Well done. Tomas
Here is a picture of old town square. The pictures is taken from atop of Town Hall. This is just because all of the street performers show up to start their shows.
