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 @francismoure:
The monument of 101 years Jan Hus in the Old Town Square. A quote from him on the monument reads: "love one another and want the truth to everyone." A date that I loved, this whole city is so full of life that you want to never leave it. And all the architectural styles they have are beautiful.
This photo was taken in October 2016.

I posted a closer shot of this a few months ago, but I found a wider shot I like too. This is Powder Tower, one of the original city gates that separates Old Town from New Town. I didn't know what this was at the time but I knew it was something striking, especially against the clouds in the sky. It really is an incredible architectural statement that leads into the beauty of Old Town.
Prague, one of the most beautiful cities in Central Europe, is a city that must be visited and visited with its magnificent atmosphere. You can easily visit this extraordinary city by organizing your own trip, which is the way I like and prefer more as you can see this beautiful city with Central European tours organized in our country.
Prague's Old Town Square is the oldest and most active spot in Prague, covering an area of 1.7 hectares. Located between Celetna and Staromestske namesti, the square is at the top of our list of places to visit in Prague. This gothic, Renaissance, baroque and neoclassical place is visited by tourists as well as the places to see and see, as well as human traffic and various shows that do not end day and night.
It is very enjoyable to watch the street demonstrators in the old city square, to sit and relax in the street cafes and restaurants. You can watch the hustle and bustle of the square by climbing to the top of the Old Town Hall where the Dilersen Astronomical Clock is located.
Prague Old Town Square is a place that has witnessed many important histories from the execution of Protestant leaders in the 17th century to the attacks of Soviet tanks in 1968. There are countless buildings and works you need to see in the Old Town Square, where the heart of the city is thrown and your soul is reflected. Astronomical Clock and Old Town Hall, Dum u Minuty House dating from 1611, which was inhabited by Franz Kafka for a while, Stone Canyon House, built with Baroque architecture and temporary exhibitions of the municipal gallery, was built as a simple church in the 14th century, the Church of the Virgin Mary in front of Tyn, the Jan Hus Monument in the name of Hus, who was told to change the church in 1415 and burnt for what they did, and the Marian Column, which was planned to be rebuilt in 1918 and destined for the independence of Czechoslovakia in 1918, is located behind the Tyn Church Storch House, which is known as the Ungelt patron of the area, Saint Vaclav 's painting, Golz - Kinsky Palace which was occupied by the communists for a while, the well in the middle of the small plaza and Male Namesti, the monument of plague are some of the most important structures you can see here.
Thanks for reading. @czechglobalhosts
Thank you so much for your extensive information. It will make a great entrance to today´s challenge. Thank you so much and have a great day. Tomas
One of the Prague's most-visible landmarks is the 216 meter-high Žižkov Television Tower. Also its Prague's tallest structure. Žižkov is also famous for Palác Akropolis, underground bars and stylish cafes. Its also contains several beautiful parks like Parukářka and Vítkov.
I think this is the closest one so far:)....
Big thanks to you Tomas for extending the competition for us Aussies here ^.^.
Back inside the Prague Castle, I had to the share the last plaque which I love the most. Because its in an awkward angle I had to take it sideways. The colours and the symbol on this reminded me of an old game I used to play and brings back memories of how nice to no worry about work and enjoy play and holiday. (reposting as I missed the cutoff last time)
No worries, you are most welcome!
The most beautiful time, when turn on the backlight, and the sky has not yet become black. At such times I'm torn to pieces. I want to be everywhere at the same time. But on the other hand you can stay in one place and watch as the sky slowly darkens and stars appear. The second option is closer to me. So you get fewer pictures, but more impressions.
Beautiful image as always. Thank you.
Prague is incredible around Christmas time. I took this photo during Christmas of December 2016. Prague Christmas markets are among the best in Europe, especially when it's in a beautiful winter wonderland! The atmosphere is further enhanced by elegant old houses, palaces and towers, cobblestoned streets and baroque squares lit with gas lamps, and wonderful Christmas decoration such as this one. :-)
Yes, indeed.... As the matter of fact, the Prague Christmas markets are voted as top in the world year after year. Tomas
Hi, I want to talk about my experince about Prague
Prague is a magical city and I have not come across it. For hundreds of years, the capital city of Bohemia is fascinated by its elegant bridges, cathedrals, towers with golden hats and church dome, with its swift Vltava River. II. It is always lively, crowded and romantic, with almost no damage from World War II, with the medieval center of the fortunate city, with church bells, cathedrals, cathedrals, coves and cobbled streets lurking in the shadow of the ninth century castle overlooking the east.
The Czech Republic remains within Europe and has a temperate black climate. The winters are cold and humid, the summers warm, and the first and the autumn are exactly as these seasons require. Some days in the summer can be very hot. It is snowing in the winter, but the city is long before long. In general, we can say that Istanbul is a little cooler for Prague weather. Ideal months are May, June and September, but all summer and spring seasons are suitable for going to Prague.
Again another fabulous sky :-)
Thank you so much for your great intro!
The Great Synagogue in Plzen, Czech Republic. It is the second largest synagogue in Europe and world third largest synagogue. It is one of the most historical landmarks of Jewish community in Czech
nice photo
Grat image! Thank you for sharing!
You are welcome sir. I feel grateful to you for giving us a chance to share pictures here🙂
For today entry I have prepared another photo from Prague. In last recent years there is usually small amount of snow there. I come from North of Bohemia so I am used to lower temperature, so when I am in Prague it is like spring for me :D
Your image is absolutely stunning!
Thank you ! :)
Located on the eastern side of the Petrin Hill, these creepy sculptures were created by a famous Czech sculptor Olbram Zoubek in 2002. The monument is dedicated to those who fell victims to communism in the Czech Republic. It looks very disturbing at night.
