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 @assasin:

I really like walking through the old streets of Prague. With small souvenir shops. When with each step you see a new little house unlike the previous one. This street is on the way to Prague Castle.

Český Krumlov is a fairy tale town full of history, magical houses, streets are mysterious. The view from the tower to the city is breathtaking. The only minus are crowds of tourists, but still the city is magical.

Cesky Krumlov
Just as beautiful as everyone says, Cesky Krumlov is a victim of it's own success. Like Venice, it's a tourist honey pot but very well done. There are a lot of genuine arts and crafts in amongst get the touristy stuff and just about anywhere you stop to eat or relax has it's own beauty. The river is wonderful and well enjoyed.

Kutna Hora is a must place to visit while you are in Prague. Ossuary Church will be the most important stop of the trip. For some spooky for some a great place to take family pictures surrounded by hundred of bones and skulls this is a place with almost one thousand years of history.

Shortly after the clock tower you find yourself in front of the majestic Charles Bridge. Initially, the influx of people is frightening, but you can walk pleasantly throughout the bridge. Beautiful even at night with the view of the castle perfectly lit. Council to arrive early in the morning to find less turnout.

John Lennon Wall
This is a true representation of love and the unity that comes from it. The messages on this wall give me hope for the future where the world can overcome it's differences. It's a must see whilst in Prague just to feel uplifted and positive.

The dancing house represents a dancing couple. It is located on a main street in Prague. Nothing much to see in it, except for photo stop. The cafe on the top offers good views, but can be skipped if short of time in Prague. There are several other must see attractions in Prague, so this one can be skipped for sure.

Charles Bridge is not only one of the most famous bridges in the world, but it is also inseparably connected to the most glamorous era of Prague and – last but not least – it just might be the most beautiful bridge in Europe. It is 516 meters long, 9.5 meters wide, 13 meters high, and stands on 15 pillars. It’s also the part of the so-called Royal Route. It costs nothing to see or cross the bridge also!
