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 @nikollettesunday:
On the roof of the National Theater is a fascinating view of the Vltava River and the Prague Castle. I often attend the performance of the National Theater and I always go to the roof where is the balcony full of statues. Watching sunset is also stunning. These two statues of woman looking down like female patriots of the city.
I rewarded @nikollettesunday 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 Zizkov TV tower is a prominent feature of Prague's skyline. Built in the 1980's it's beautifully futuristic and hideous at the same time. It's also not going anywhere, even if it looks like a rocket.
Usually there are giant David Cerny made babies attached to the tower, but here is a rare view of it without them.
There is also a really great pub in the square where this photo was taken, it's called "U Sadu" enjoy.
Row of beautiful historic houses found on the Olomoucka Street in the center of the Silesian city of Opava. The street is one of the most important and busiest streets in the city, leading all the way up to the Moravian city of Olomouc (hence the name).
Yesterday I showed a stained-glass window of St. Vitus Cathedral at Prague. Today I share other stained-glass window. This one shows scenes of the live of Christ, unlike yesterday photograph; it is worth watching them in detail. You can see the style and colors of the designed is a big contrast with the Gothic and Baroque architecture of the Cathedral.
Look! How beautiful it is! Nature can be so impressive. People also can create something good together with nature. That is one of the inner gardens in Prague. Have you been there? Have you seen it? Have you taken a picture of it? I'm sure you have. This place can't stay unnoticed.
Historic Center Of Cesky Krumlov&
It is a place to visit absolutely. Characteristic lanes, beautiful little restaurants on the river. A visit to the castle and see the panorama in the evening. The bears in the moat of the castle are sad. If you go in a camper you can sleep in the lively parking for coaches.
The Red Church is a Protestant Church in Brno, Czech Republic. It was designed by architect Heinrich von Ferstel and built up between 1863-1867. Nowadays it is used by the Evangelical Church of Czech Brethren.
Prague Loreta, Loretánské square, Hradčany, Prague
One of the most important Czech pilgrimage sites. One of the most important Czech pilgrimage sites. It is a collection of Baroque buildings to celebrate the Virgin Mary. The pattern was the Holy Hut of the Italian Loreto. It is surrounded by the original six chapels that have been constantly upgraded.
Cesky Krumlov
Beautiful city, small and very picturesque, unusual. Looks like a fairy tale scenery. It is very compact. The concentration of picturesque medieval buildings per square meter is one of the largest we have ever met.
St. Vitus Cathedral
Beautiful cathedral in a beautiful castle in a beautiful city. The stained glass, inside vaulting and outside structure and detail (gargoyles galore) are gothic grandeur in the extreme. In the heart of the Prague Castle that dominates the city, you will find in this place full of stories stained glass and scenery worthy of children's stories.
Enchanting old city centre
I liked wandering the small alleys and streets full of history - they give you such a magical feeling. There are historical buildings everywhere and, although it may be full of tourists, the city centre offers a variety of entertainment options for every taste.
I'm looking at this photo and understand how long ago my trip to Prague was.
My attention was caught by that small poster of Museum of communism. I haven't been there. But I wanted to visit it. I was curious in what way it would be shown. Maybe I will pay it a visit next time.
Beautiful atmosphere that really focuses on the architecture and all the art that goes with it. The clock is very well preserved and maintained. The colours are bright and full! Many cafes are right across and very accessible. The square is also filled with Street artists that add to the atmosphere.
Only bad thing is the huge amount of people, but then again it is a tourist attraction. But make sure you go there on a weekday to get a better view and feel of the atmosphere.
View from black tower, Tower in České Budějovice.
There is a nice view around the city from the top, but to get there you have to climb a set of very thight and very steep stairs.
Try to visit when there are not too many other tourists - it can get quite adventurous if too many people are trying to use the stairs simultaneously.
Fun,frolic and gastronomy in an ethearily beautiful square.
A stage set depicting grandeur and majesty,the Old Town Square in Prague is like stepping into a mega production on the history of this exquisitely beautiful city.
Stunning architectecture,churches,the Astronomical Clock deemed the most beautiful in Europe,cobbled paths,narrow lanes teeming with life,endless,successive waves of tourists from every corner of the globe ,myriad restaurants where delectable meals are sampled while gazing at the stupefying beauty all around...even a surreal Feliini moment with a Giant Panda in the middle,or a group of elfin Chinese girls breaking into impromptu graceful dance.
Strahov Monastery
Baroque library, in a small covent area on top of an hill facing the city, the is not so much to do. And the library could only be seen and photographed (after an extra fee) from the outside. But it's really nice.
Prague Castle
We went for a walk from the city to the castle in the nearby park and then went to the castle complex. We looked at everything but from the outside, because at that time was just too much going on. But it is definitely worth a visit.
