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 @pharmacygirl:
The Cathedral of Saints Peter and Paul is located on the Petrov hill in the centre of the city of Brno in the Czech Republic. It is a national cultural monument and one of the most important pieces of architecture in South Moravia.

If you are going to visit the Great America quarry. So visit also the village of Morinka, which is nearby. Above this village stands Menhir from which is a beautiful view of the surroundings. For views, you can sit in a concrete armchair next to Menhir.
Wow! That is such a wonderful shot and the place that I have never seen before! This will definitely make a great entrance for today's contest! Thank you. Tomas
Thanks, this is a magical place and excelling especially at sunset and sunrise.
Night photo of a water wheel in Prague, it is located at the area called Čertovka (Devil's Channel), also called Little Prague Venice. It is situated at Malá Strana (or Lesser Town). In ancient time, it used to be many water mills in this area.
The castle is simply the symbol of Prague. The view overlooking Prague is breathtaking. Yes, there is plenty to see and do in Prague, day and night, but you can not miss the castle and St. Vitus Cathedral, which is the jewel in this area.
Prague Castle.
Stunning image!
Old Town Square. If you are interested in history, then buy an excursion from representatives of various travel agencies. If the story is not interesting, then you can just walk around the square, it is beautiful and unique. It attracts to itself. Staromestskaya area of tourists enjoys the same popularity as the Charles Bridge. Probably, these are the two most famous tourist destinations that every tourist visits in Prague.
View of the Church of Our Lady, St. Jerome and Slavonic patrons. It usually says "The Slavs" (Na Slovanech). Taken from Palacky Square, New Town, Praha 2 . The church dates from the time of Karal IV. But the Roof ... The Effect of the Ametic Bombardment of Prague March 25, 1945. Renovated in the modern style of the 1950s. It does not look bad at all.
And details:
Hi! What a great entry! However, enter only one image for the purpose of the contest. Thank you!
Near Pohansko castle can be found this old “house”. I do not know if it used to be a house or what was the use of it, so all I can say is: it is an archeological site of Pohansko. I thought it is interesting, probably more than Pohansko castle. You can also see a wild beast on the picture. Just kidding, it is my dog Remy. :)
St. Ludmila Church (Kostel sv. Ludmily) is a neo-Gothic Church situated in Vinohrady district, in Prague. Has two towers of 60m and both have a couple of bells. It was build between 1888 and 1892 according to the designs by Josef Mocker.
What a wonderful place! Thank you for sharing with all of us here on Steemit!
Štramberk Castle
This was founded in the late 13th century after the division of the domains belonging to the Hückeswagen clan. In the 16th century the castle had already been abandoned and was in dilapidated condition. Today all that remains are the fortifications and gothic castle tower called Trúba, which rises above the city of Štramberk and serves as an observation platform with a beautiful view of the Beskydy Mountains.
We even get inside now:)
The Revoluce sculpture made with metal keys in the Franz Kafka square. It symbolizes de 20 years that have passed since the Velvet Revolution. It amazed me. I took it with a 35mm film and a Minolta camera
Another important Czech sculptor is Jaroslav Róna. His most significant public statues are focused on Prague native Franz Kafka and his stories. This little square in the middle of Prague's Dusni Street is what the city's famous native, writer Franz Kafka, probably saw each time he looked out of his window. The historic Jewish Quarter in Prague is where Kafka spent most of his life - and often features in his novels and short stories.
