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:
The main Open colonnade in Karlovy Vary. Set in a beautiful stone structure with big pilgrims of stone. Hosts to colonnade’s number six through nine that have different temperature of water flooding from them. It’s an open air colonnade so you can drink whenever you want.

One of my favorite locations, where a beautiful view of the castle Hazenburg. I've been to this place several times, and every time I enjoyed the sunset. Unfortunately, you can only get to this place by car. Because it is in the middle of the field between the villages of Chotesov and Radovesice in Northern Bohemia.
You did make my selection pretty easy today with this fantastic image. Well done. Enjoy your weekend. Tomas
One of the buildings of the complex of the Silesian University in Opava. Founded in 1991, the Silesian University in Opava is one of the youngest universities in the Czech Republic. There are currently almost 9 thousand students studying at this university.
Pěkně Ti to ten stín rozbil. Líbí.
Dík! :)
Walkway to the main gate of the Kravare Chateau. Situated in the little town of Kravare in the Silesian part of the Czech Republic, the Kravare Chateau is a majestic Baroque chateau whose origins date back to the 17th century. The chateau houses the Chateau Museum where you can learn more about the history and culture of the town and the region.
The photo that I propose today, I took the walk along the Vltava, coming from the Synagogue to the Charles Bridge that is seen in the image full of people walking on a hot day of August.
The National Museum of Prague is a building that is impossible not to notice. It is located on Wenceslas Square. The National Museum attracts attention not only for its size, but also for its architecture. If you are on Wenceslas Square, then you will definitely see this magnificence of architecture. The Chefs call their museum Narodni muzeum. Indeed, the Museum of Prague is the largest state museum of Prague. Firstly, its size is striking - the facade area is more than 100 meters, and the height of the building is no less than 70 meters. For comparison - the height of the Great South Tower of St. Vitus Cathedral is 96.5 meters. We were in Prague in 2014 and in the beginning of 2016. The National Museum was still in the process of being restored.

There is so much to see in Prague! Who would look under his feet.. But try to look at the sidewalk or pavement occasionally. Even there you can find interesting things!
Here is a marked meridian, according to which the time was determined in Prague.
Beautiful View From Petrin Tower
A true 'must' if visiting Prague. It offers a amazing 360 degree view over entire Prague, at a great height. Experienced with the good old spiral stairs which can be physically demanding and challenging for everyone who has vertigo issues. Please notice that ticket office does not accept EUR currency or any type of bank cards: you need to withdraw local currency from a onsite ATM machine. At the end it was a amazing experience!
Cesky Krumlov
Wow! If you are traveling to Prague, do yourself a favor and be sure to make a stop here. This is a really beautiful mid evil town with an amazing history. I was very disappointed that we didn't have enough time to explore the castle but it was great to walk through and experience the incredible scenery here. Don't miss the Trdlnik - a traditional cake and sweet pastry, known from Slovakia, the Czech Republic and Hungary. It is made from rolled dough, wrapped around a stick, then grilled and topped with sugar and cinnamon. Yum!
Charles Bridge
Words cannot describe the beauty of this tourist attraction. A must see for anyone visiting Prague. Take a stroll along with many photo opportunity. Local music, arts and crafts to buy as well. Be mindful of others about you though as some people will poke a selfie stick right in your face and keep walking.
The Prague astronomical clock, or Prague orloj, is a medieval astronomical clock located in Prague, the capital of the Czech Republic. It really is shading and worth seeing once but if you go on a nice day in the weekend be prepared for big crowds when it does it's little show every hour.
