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 @khaan:

12 mile mountain hike through Bohemian Switzerland through an explosion of Fall color. The park is beautiful. From the mountain there is an excellent view of the endless forests, just the same Russian expanses) The scale of the arch in the rocks is impressive, in the photo it seems smaller. The road is trodden up a mountain through a coniferous forest; blueberries and ferns grow; it smells of pines. But just the road deserves a separate comment: for traveling with a stroller and small children is completely unsuitable. Since the road is a country road, the constant height differences and the massive roots of the trees do not allow the carriage to pass by.

The city of Karlovy Vary itself is relatively small, and the old part of the city located on both banks of the Tepla river is mainly known to tourists.
This is a city, a fairy tale. It's all very quiet, no fuss. I think you will want to come back here again and again. Here you rest from the metropolis. And time stops here. Here you will not miss the architecture of the 19th century. Also during the tour we were shown the famous colonnades with mineral springs. Water was allowed to try and even take with you. We also saw Virgilo (Geyser), the flow of water reaches 15 meters in height! In general, a lot of impressions. It seems that time has moved you back and forgot to pick it up! The streets are spacious, wide. I advise everyone!

Thank you so much for your wonderful entry. Karlovy Vary sure is a great place to visit. Have a great day. Tomas

Majestic tree shedding leaves in a forest outside of Hradec nad Moravici, a small town located in the Moravian - Silesian Region of the Czech Republic. The town is famous for the Hradec nad Moravici Chateau Complex and picturesque natural surroundings.

Cesky Krumlov
It is a charming town, with the buildings restored with great care and effort that are worth supporting. The castle and the gardens are very beautiful, also the river and simply wandering through its streets is discovering a piece of Czech history in every block.

What an amazing place, only had one day there, should have planned to stay at least a couple of nights. I expected Medieval I did not expect the size of the town and the beauty of the buildings and the surroundings, such atmosphere. I will go back.

Church of St. Salvator, Klášterská street, Prag, Olt Town
P1090309.JPG
One of many Prague Gothic churches. Most of these churches were modified at a later time, especially during the Baroque period.
I do not know why this church was not baroque. perhaps because it lies in the flood area, in a place where only the poor lived in late ...

This beautiful, very beautiful church inside is also dedicated to St. Procopius and is located in the Zizkov district of Prague. It is in neo-gothic style and was consecrated in 1903. It is located on the Seifertova, the main road through Prague 3.

I really loved this place. there is a painting of John Lennon in the middle of the wall and people can draw anything they want, Lennon's wall takes about 10 minutes to visit, take picture and write(draw) something on, and you have to have your own painting tools.
I really enjoyed it as a John Lennon fan.
Great point about Prague is you can visit popular places by walking and the city is so beautiful.

St. Barbara's Church
This building is impressive. The unusual roof and architecture is a must see. Inside the stained glass windows and wall murals are brilliant works of art. This church is not overcrowded with religious icons so you can enjoy viewing things individually. Definitely worth a visit.

You can't go to Prague without seeing the Old Town Square - in fact, it sometimes seems that almost any route you take leads you through it! Very crowded and surrounded by very touristy restaurants and bars - over-priced and typically quite poor food. Old Town Square is the nicest historical sight i have seen so far.

Situated inside the Moravian Hills, north from Brno, The Macocha cave (translated name: Step Mother, local name Punkva cave) is the most visited out of four caves, being very spectacular due to a combo trail inside: half visiting by walking and half of the visit (about 0.5km long) is made by boat along real “inside rivers” captive inside illuminated stone walls and low vaults. At the halfway between these two parts of the visiting circuit the guide is leading the group to see the magnificent Machocha Abyss and the emerald lake at its bottom.
The breathtaking trip starts at the small parking of the resort Skalny Mlyn, (here is also ticket selling point - both for the small touristic train up to the cave entrance and for visiting the cave –if you don’t choose to walk to the cave entrance (2km on the asphalted road, along the Punkva River).

This is one of the best places in Czech Republic and in my heart it is the best. I visited this area many times and I am always happy to go back and explore something new.
If you start in Mezní Louka (easier way but longer) and you will go to great rock gate "Pravčická brána", your way back can be by boat on rivers called "soutězky". You can also make this trip from Hřensko (it is more hard way), visit the rock gate and go to Mezní louka, and way back to Hřensko is possible by boat on river. Then you can go from Vysoká Lípa to famous historic watermill called "Doslký mlýn" and then walk to "Jetřichovice". From "Jetřichovice" you can reach the "Dwarf rock" or you can make the best trail on the peaks of Czech Switzerland - Mariina skála-Vilemínina stěna-Rudolfův kámen. From these places is fantastic panoramatic view which will take your breath. This tour you can finish again in "Jetřichovice" or in "Mezní Louka". There is also small sister of great rock gate called "Málá pravčická brána" - you can reach it from Vysoká Lípa. On the way you will meet ruins of rock fortress called "Šaunštejn" - it is little bit hard to go on the top this rock and I think is is not suitable for small childrens and somehow disabled people. But view on the top is great reward.

If you want to visit most of these beauties in this area, you should stay here for 3-4 days and make a good plan. I can reccommend as starting point the pension "Švýcarský dvůr" in Jetřichovice or accommodation in chalet "U Fořta" in Mezní Louka.

Gorgeous View From Diana
The view was nice but to be honest I expected a far better one. Maybe my expectations were too high. Anyway, it was worth visiting and the forest all around with tiny pathces of the town was beautiful. Awesome place with best view at Karlovy Vary.

Prague Castle
It's the largest castle complex in the world. Give yourself lots of time to explore everything. Wear comfortable, supportive shoes to walk on the uneven cobblestones. An enormously large enclosed building high up with very beautiful views of Prague. After reviewing security checks, you can also visit its large garden and the beautiful cathedral.
