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 @impi:

Prague is really a fascinating city but it is the most charming in the old town which makes it fascinating. The medieval cathedral seems to have sprung from the fairy tales. The square is the most lively place in Prague. Both very romantic and fun.

This is one of my favorite places in Prague, a great place to relax, take photos, watch, meet people .... and and and. You can see the Charles Bridge from here and many people come here. This picture was taken a few days ago. It was just sunset and the blue hour has come. Then people came with sacks of bread and fed the swans. While taking many pictures of the view and the swans, my wife photographed a pregnancy shoot at this location.

Whenever I see the image similar to yours it just reminds me my childhood when our grandma used to take us to Prague and at some point we would go and feed the swans. Thank you so much for bringing back some great memories. Have a great day. Tomas

Monument dedicated to the victims of both of the world wars installed on the Olomoucka Street in the center of Opava, facing the main court building. Home to over 57,000 people, Opava is the capital city and cultural center of the Silesian Region of the Czech Republic.

My last shot of Autumn in Czech republic shows path where I usually walking with my dog. On the south part of Opava, suburb called Kylesovice near the river Opavice. Pretty nice place :)

The tourist industry in Prague uses every possible trick to capture the attention of the visitors. In the photo you can see an old Trabant (a car made in former East Germany - GDR), as a way of advertisement to a service that it is not related to the Czech culture. By the way, this deep red colour was to the native colour of these cars. I noticed that Trabants are popular in Prague.

Something I created fitting this November mood ~ ⭐️ ~ During my walks in the Czech village Konárovice I discovered this lovely historic house - looking far more spooky here than it does in reality with chickens all around...!
I love if buildings of old are being taken care of ~ this one is still in the process of restoration with new windows plus roof... hopefully soon it will be all-fine from head to toe ~ 😊✨ ~

Cesky Krumlov
Beautiful town and perfect for a short stay. Had 2 nights there and that was definitely enough. Ideal for "activities" such as hiking, canoeing but the river was flooded on our visit and so this limited the options available. Lovely town though!

Charles Bridge
Pretty cool bridge, only fully populated by tourists during the day, even in November. Great all-round view of the brilliant old town of Prague, in the evening sensational and not so crowded, at least late in the evening.

Night view through the grass. I liked the feeling of urban and natural elements in harmony that this low point of view behind a garden provided. It was as if I were sitting near a campfire, and behind the stems some flames illuminated the buildings nearby while in the background stronger electric lights showcased the taller structure. And the smells of a campfire can be felt there for real, in the old center of Prague. Ham, potatoes and skewers are being roasted pretty close behind my back.

No, I was not wrong. This is also Prague ... But it's not a typical place. Zoological Garden, Elephant Valley. In addition to Indian elephants, Buddhist and Hindu shrines are built. There are also statues of Hindu deities, indigenous villages here...
Whenever a son goes around praying grinders, he does not hold himself and he has to turn ...
Visit the Prague Zoo, there are not only animals here!

The view of the three crosses lies near the village named Velké Žernoseky. There is a section of the area known as Porta Bohemica on the River Elbe. Here was the fortified settlement with the entrance to Bohemia.
