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 @dali-gis:

The dock near Čechova bridge. In Čechova more, there is a fleet of boats from Prague. It is one of Prague's largest wharves, from which steamboats and cruise ships depart for Prague. From here you can go for lunch, dinner cruise and, of course, our Sweet Prague premium cruise.

The famous "wine village" with wine cellars in the hillside above the village Petrov-Plže in Southern Moravia. The facades of some cellars are pargeted in a beautiful blue and white pattern, and some are decorated with colourful ornaments.

A wine village? This sounds like my kind of place.

Every cellar full of wine 😉

Sounds like a "sweet" place to visit.

Now we are talking:).... What an amazing region that is! This will make a great entry for today's contest. Have a good one. Tomas

View of the National Theater and the Vltava River as seen from the Legion Bridge. Considered the most important and iconic cultural institutions of the country, the National Theatre consists of three artistic ensembles: opera, ballet and drama.

This is a pretty cool shot. The architecture is awesome.

You just published a post about 40 years anniversary of Metro Line A. I took this photo of an escalator of one of the main metro station in Prague (I do not remember exactly which one). I remarked that it is very long, it means the station is very deep. I consider the B&W format of the photo makes this image more interesting.

Lomeček, Quarry in Mrákov.
Beautiful relaxing spot swimming and diving for relaxed people. No luxury, just the beauty of nature and a lot of work to local people. Soft lawn for sunbathing, clean water, food and extraordinary experience when observing life below the surface. I encourage all well with young children.

Velka Amerika
Very beautiful lake of anthropogenic origin - former quarry pit. Around the picturesque landscape. Beautiful nature, clean water, a little bit of adrenaline. Who bothers rocks and complicated unsafe climb and climb so I'd rather not;)

Beautiful natural landscape. Very beautiful friend photo

St. Barbara's Church.
I very much enjoyed this attraction. Very beautiful paintings and architecture. Many churches do not permit you to venture upstairs which this one does. Great view from above. A beautiful building and a place that fascinated me. Strong. As a villager and patriot I had to see it.

smetanova vyhlidka
Super view of the Vltava meadows.
As a photographer, I have to admit that I am glad that such a prospect is and is at all. It gives me the chance to crawl what I want or how I like it. But here I did not use sunrise or sunset - I just visited. Anyway, even in bad weather, it's just a great experience!

Cesky Krumlov
The cobblestone town square is surrounded by architecturally beautiful buildings and has a tall plague monument right in the middle of it. From the square, many streets can be explored. The river surrounds the town and separates it from the castle area. It is so picturesque that it looks like a postcard. We spent two days and were happy we had both days!

We were accommodation in camp alum, which is nearby, from the green signs and there is no entry here. Below the rock formation Lokomotiva, Kraví Hora, we reached quite difficult terrain at the crossroads and continued on the yellow to the Teplické rocks.

St. Nicholas Church
A wonderful and impressive structure externally, filled with spirituality and meaning. Even near you want to think about the eternal. We were able to attend a concert and it really was a fantastic experience, the church, although small, is a beauty worth enjoying.

OLD TOWN PRAGUE
On the streets of the old city you can wander endlessly. And each time to discover something new for yourself. Previously not seen at home, alleys, which had not previously folded. It is better to always have a card with you, you can easily get lost. However, there are people on the streets even at night. At night it is difficult to find a place to eat. Beer is always and everywhere.

St Bartholomew's Cathedral
The tower provides an awesome panaormic view of Pilsen, helpfully complete with pictures telling you what you are looking at. Beware though - the stairs are seemingly endless and very narrow at points. This is definitely the must if you are near the main square in Pilsen. View is awesome, if you be there during the time when bells rings, it is even better.

The Heart Of Old Prague
Rarely so many beautifully preserved and restored buildings seen in a small space. Since the old town is totally overcrowded, which is sometimes really annoying, you should start again in the early morning hours or at night.

It seemed to me that the center of Prague was not sleeping much. Or tourists never sleep in it. Because with the onset of darkness life in the center of Prague does not cease. Every evening we went for a walk, and it was like a different city, more romantic and mysterious.
Of course, only after arriving, we could not go to sleep and wandered around the neighborhood of our hotel Ankora Hotel Praha.

I visited Jihlava on Sunday, in this city I spent two years of my students live. Many well preserved gothic and renaissance buildings are there in Masaryk square, the second largest square in the Czech Republic (first is Vaclav's square inPrague). Worth of visit is also fortification, catacombs with lumitius wall, ZOO or aquapark. You can make educative track in place where was a silver mined. In the picture you can see Neptune's fountain (under reconstruction), townhall (on the right) and the jesuits Church of St. Ignatz from Loyoli.

To celebrate that my immediate travels had been canceled & I am stressed but still in the Czech Republic a ˋtwilighted´ impression from today....! ~ This contest is truly addictive (- especially for someone who is as found of this land as I am -) but I try my hardest to not be that obsessive any more by posting every single day like I did in the recent past :)
And oh - this image had been taken in the quaint village ˋKonárovice´ about sixty miles away from Prague ~ in the last years I spend much of my summers here and can recommend it to everyone who is not afraid of sometimes feeling like a recluse living far outside the ˋmodern world´ ~ 😊🌟 ~

Great composition and great color

Hello good day @ czechglobalhosts. Beautiful photo of @ dali-gis, you can also see the birds in the sky. Congratulations.

such a very stunning winning choice ~ 🌟🌟 ~

Beautiful photography, it is a true charm. Happy Monday

The nice thing about bridges is that you can usually capture them from many different angles. Since the Charles Bridge is the epicenter of Prague's tourist scene and is always crowded with people, it's nice that there are places to snap some photos of it without 100 people in the way.
