Hello fellow Steemians,
I hope you are all enjyoing 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. Just make sure you are familiar with the new rules and conditions of this photo challenge:
AS THIS PHOTO CHALLENGE HAS BEEN INCREASINGLY POPULAR ON STEEMIT AND THE NUMBER OF SUBMISSIONS HAS BEEN CONSTANTLY GROWING, I CANNOT UVPOTE ALL OF THEM ANYMORE, UNFORTUNATELY. THEREFORE, STARTING NOW, ONLY THE BEST 15 ENTRIES OF THE DAY WILL BE UVPOTED. OUT OF THOSE 15 PHOTOS, HOWEVER, I WILL ALWAYS CHOOSE THE WINNER OF THE DAY WHO WILL BE REWARDED WITH A BIGGER UVPOTE. THE WINNING PHOTO WILL BE ALSO FEATURED AS THE COVER PHOTO FOR THE CHALLENGE POST THE NEXT DAY, TO GIVE THE WINNER SOME MORE EXPOSURE AND PUBLICITY. HOPEFULLY, THESE UPDATES WILL ALSO MOTIVATE ALL CONTRIBUTORS TO SUBMIT THEIR VERY BEST SHOTS.
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 @dmytrokorol:
We have found this beautiful VW Beetle in front of even more beautiful Rudolfinum, the home of famous Czech Philharmonic Orchestra. Its largest music auditorium, Dvořák Hall, is one of the oldest concert halls in Europe and is noted for its excellent acoustics.

I present to you a picture I take in my holidays in Prague in 2011, I hope you like it ... The Charles Bridge is the oldest bridge in Prague, and crosses the Vltava River from the Old City to the Lesser Town. It is the second oldest existing bridge in the Czech Republic.
First one today:)
The Vltava in the front, on the other shore the Kafka Museum, the St. Nicholas Church and in the background on the right the Prague Castle. The Charles Bridge is basically right to the left.
Have a great sunday everbody:)
Street in Vinohrady with TV Tower
When I visited Prague, I went to see the TV tower which has some quite impressive architecture to offer. I got this shot in the Vinohrady neighbourhood after I had fled from the rain into the tv tower where I enjoyed the magnificiant view over Prague.

The National Museum in Prague is the largest and also oldest museum in the Czech Republic. The main building is located on the upper end of Wenceslas Square. It´s is hard to miss this gorgeous historical building. However, this building is currently closed for massive and essential reconstruction until 2020. There is plenty to see, absolutely worth visiting.
Side view of the Governor´s Summer Palace, an impressive romantic mansion with Neo-Gothic entrance gate at the upper end of Stromovka in Prague. The yellow facade, in English Gothic Revival style, was created in the early 19th century, but the very origin of the building dates back to the 15th century when it was built to serve as a summer hunting residence for Prague nobility. Photo taken in July 2016.
Photo of an interesting sculpture, located in a square at the Jewish quarter of Prague. Unfortunately I do not have to much information about this piece of art. Could you or some of the readers share some information (author, etc) about this sculpture?
Here is another picture from Old Town, the heart of Prague. It is in the courtyard near the Astrological clock. The architecture is just amazing, just down right beautiful. Everyone should visit old town if they are in the area.
Here we see one of the famous buildings in Prague, the magnificent Church of Our Lady Before Tyn.
The name comes from a former market that was nearby, Tyn Square, so this was the church you came to before you came to Tyn. The two towers are 80 meters tall!
Schwarzenberská Hrobka
It is a tomb of Schwarzenberg's family. And the current head of the family is politician Karel Schwarzenberg. It was built in the nineteenth century. There are 26 coffins in the tomb and the tomb is open to the public.
Hello Prague-lovers! If you visit Prague one day, please keep in mind that John Lennon Wall is a Must-see. Starting from 80's this huge wall has been filled with John Lennon and Beatles-inspired graffiti and song lyrics. The huge colorful wall welcomes you into a warm atmosphere and at any hour of the day you can see people taking photos, singing songs and reading books around it.
