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:
Vyšehrad is a great place for a walk in Prague. Autumn mornings are so peaceful here. There are good views over the city and down the river. Everything turned to yellow and I had to take so many pictures. A nice change from the tourist-packed old town.

St. Nicholas Church
It is one of the most beautiful churches in Prague, in Baroque style. The fresco of the dome and the high altar are very beautiful. It is a pity that the restoration work in progress concealed most of the frescoes with protective cloths. Not to be confused with the church of the same name in the Old Town district. Not to be missed.
Crafmenship and artwork of our ancestors were just simply stunning. What a precise work and dedication. Well worth featuring in today's edition. Thank you so much and have a great day. Tomas
One of my attempts to produce a minimalist landscape photo. I took this image a week ago while roaming the rural part of the Moravian - Silesian Region of the Czech Republic. The tiny tree silhouettes on the horizon with the sinister cloudy sky above somehow caught my attention.
Front view of the St. Bartholomew's Church (Kostel Sv. Bartolomeje in the Czech language) - one of the most dominant architectural features of the little Silesian town of Kravare. The very origin of the chuch dates back to the early 16th century but it has been rebuilt and extended many times over the centuries.
A day of hiking in Bohemian Switzerland National Park 🍁
Along the way we visited the largest natural sandstone arch in Europe and massive canyons filled with colorful trees. A perfect autumn day we’d say! I've always wanted to go there!
Cesky Krumlov
Walking through its streets is to return to the middle ages. Everything impeccable, flowers, friendly people but only when you consult. Do not mess with the enraptured tourist who looks at your city. Point that can not be stopped visiting. I recommend one night as a minimum to enjoy it more.
Cesky Krumlov
the most lovely town i have ever seen. it is such a small town. you can walk around the town at least four times in a day. if you are visiting Prague this one is not far from there and much beautiful than Prague. Tour the castle, walk through the gardens, walk by the river, soak your feet in the river, dine by the river and have fresh grilled salmon. Spend the evening lazing by the river or go kayaking down the river. Lovely place to relax. Sink into its beauty.
The image that I propose today is a beautiful panoramic view of the city of Prague, taken from the hill of Vitkok, from the terrace of the Museum behind the National Monument. From here you can enjoy a truly beautiful 360 ° view.
Sedlec Ossuary Church
Many people were visiting the church which was decorated with plenty of bones. I felt that the bones decorated beautifully are treated very carefully. Visiting the church of Kutna Hora in the vicinity of less than 15 minutes on foot from the station is easy to visit by taking the bus No. 1 which is passing by very quickly.
The Saint Barbara's church was built by and for the silver miners in Kutna Hora. The church itself is architecturally stunning, both the interior and exterior. However, relative to other European churches, it was somewhat average in terms of its beauty. The history of the church was very interesting.
Adrspach
Walking through the rocks gives an incredible joy, the shapes of stones stimulate the imagination and their height and size make an impression. Green, clean, in the form of a walk for all, including children and elders. The only minus, the afternoon around the summer - lots of people. Afternoon - pleasant, walking, empty - then you can really enjoy views.
St. Vitus Cathedral
One of the most stunning place I have been to globally for sure. You would immediately be amazed by its architecture from the outside and it stands majestically with amazing details all over. After the long cue you realize that you are stepping into something incredible again. It is instantly understood how much effort this country and the former kings/ emperors are into their believes and region. Every corner of the cathedral tell a story of its own and contains amazing details that express mankind intellectual.
If you’re staying in the area of taking certain number teams you will pass the dancing house. But if you’re not in the area there’s really no need to make a trip for it. The idea is that the building is to imitate Fred and Ginger dancing but I didn’t see it. The locals called it “the famous ugly building”. There is supposed to be a bar rooftop that should have a dissent view but there are many points in the city that have views and by the time you get to the dancing house you would have seen it many many times.
Calvary, Petrin hill, Prag
Even before the lookout tower (1891) was built, there was a place of pilgrimage. It ended the calvary, there were (and still are) two chapels and a church.
Calvary was first built here in 1738, but due to weather conditions, it was often overhauled. The current form is from 1836.
Kostel Sv. Mikulase
Beautiful baroque-style church worth visiting in Mala Strana in a Czech-German style on the site of a 12th century building.
The dome, the chandelier, the altar bursting with almost rococo baroque arabesques are noteworthy.
Perfect example of the "RADICAL BAROQUE" of Bohemia.
The interior is monumental.
Thank you very much! :)
