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 @krakonos:
Pokličky ("Covers") Protected Landscape Natural Area Kokorinsko, Central Bohemia. Sandstone formations. The upper layers contain more iron than the bottom, and therefore they are more durable. The bottom layers are gradually crumpled and cracked. The photograph does not show that its acquisition was quite decent sporting performance.

I rewarded @krakonos winning entry with some extra upvote. Feel free to visit her blog and check out some of her other entries.
Thank you for your submissions. Have a great day and keep on Steeming!

The famous Straz cellars in Vrbice, Moravia, Czech Republic were built by digging into the village’s sandstone hillside in the 18th and 19th centuries. Long corridors stocked with wine can be accessed through the pretty stone entrances, which look like tiny houses, and are decorated with Gothic arches. This place is also often used for shooting the movies.
What an amazing looking little village. I might have to visit once in the region. Great entry to be featured today. Have a great day. Tomas
It's definitely THE PLACE to visit
Entrance to the courtyard of the Prague Castle. Occupying a total area of almost 70,000 square metres (750,000 square feet), it is the largest castle complex in the world. The castle is also among the most visited tourist attractions in Prague attracting over 1.8 million visitors annually.
B&W shot of the side of the National Theatre taken from the Narodni Street in the center of Prague. Considered the most important and iconic cultural institutions of the country, the National Theatre consists of three artistic ensembles: opera, ballet and drama.
A panorama photo I made in Cesky Krumlov a few years ago. Totally fell in love with the city, it has a magnificent atmosphere. I wouldn't want to stay there for many days, but it is a real gem everyone visiting the Czech Republic should visit!
I normally do not very much like panorama shots ~ but I believe I make an exception here :))
Industrial Palace in Prague's Holešovice was built in 1891. In the years 1952-1954, the palace was rebuilt and renamed the congressional palace. In 1990 it was renamed the Industrial Palace. In 2008, the left wing burned and planned reconstruction should start in 2020.
A piece of "Africa" in Prague
This children's climbing creek and slide can be found in the Prague Zoo in Troja. It is built in "African style" and located in an old elephant enclosure.
Zoos have not been showing animals only, but they also offer fun and entertainment.
If you were seven years old. Would you like to get a little crazy and slip away?
Major gathering spot with lots of happenings going on. Great place to sit and people watch. Great place for taking pictures of all the archetecture. There is so much to see in this square. A lovely place steeped in history and architecture. It does get very busy at certain times of the day but there's so many places to eat and drink and soak in the atmosphere.
amazingly fairytale-like ~ ✨ ~

National Technical Museum’s collection of Hippomobiles contains nearly thirty of the horse-drawn transportation vehicles. These mainly consist of passenger coaches that were domestically manufactured, but also includes a small collection of horse-drawn fire engines.
