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:
Sedlec Ossuary. It’s a small Catholic chapel, located under the Cemetery Church of All Saints. It is estimated to contain the skeletons of about 40,000 people, whose bones have, in many cases, been artistically arranged to form decorations and furnishings for the chapel. There is a huge chandelier, which contains at least one of every bone in the human body. It hangs from the center with garlands of skulls draping the vault. The chapel is surrounded by graves of people from 1800s. You will finish a thorough visit of this church in about 15-20 mins.
I rewarded @khaan entry with some extra upvote. Feel free to visit his blog and check out some of his other entries.
Thank you for your submissions. Have a great day and keep on Steeming!

Prague Castle, the Royal Garden and the Belvedere. The Royal Garden is a 16th century garden, established by order of King Ferdinand the First. Initially, it was planned to grow trees that are not in Central Europe, therefore, saplings were brought here and specialists of those times carefully monitored plants. There was a lot of trees for which the garden was created, almost under each there is a sign describing when it was planted, as called and a little brief information about the form.

In the quiet forest park, part of which is also a one and a half kilometer long nature trail, you can find playgrounds for children and a special enclosure (Medvědárium) that is home to the brown bears. It is no wonder than that the town of Beroun has a bear on its town seal. The enclosure is home to three brown bears who are brothers – Matěj, Vojta and Kuba.

Church of St. Joseph and Capuchin Monastery, New Town, Prague
The Church of St. Joseph dates from 1630. The church was part of a large monastery complex. The complex was abolished by Emperor Joseph II. in 1795 and converted into a barracks.
The monastery was restored in 1833. But the state did not return the original buildings. New buildings were built. This is the current state of affairs. The Monastery still works.

The Prague castle is a breathtakingly beautiful building. Years and years old. It is well worth the walk up the hill or stairs to see the shaving views but also to take in the wonder of the castle. Prague Castle is the heart of the city.

A Magnificent Gothic Church in the Old Town Square
One of Prague's most recognisable symbols, the Church of Our Lady Before Tyn dominates the landscape whichever direction you are looking at the Old Town from. Its darkened stone exterior instills a sense of gothic mystery in whoever beholds it.

Historic Old World City-Stunning Views
Cesky Krumlov is a hidden gem of the Czech Republic that should not be missed when visiting Europe. The city is historic with old world charm, interesting buildings, great for walking and people watching too.

Prague is an unusually beautiful and amazing city, which has many different sights - from ancient historical to modern modern. One of these modern attractions is the dancing house on the Vltava Embankment. A unique architectural monument in the spirit of deconstruction was built quite recently - in 1996. The building looks like two cylindrical towers, one of which bends and presses against the other, resembling a dancing couple. Prague residents call this house Ginger and Fred in honor of the famous dance couple Ginger Rogers and Fred Astaire. The dancing house fits very harmoniously into the environment, despite its unusual design and gives a certain charm to the embankment of the city.

This is actually called Sedlec Ossuary, a small church decorated with human bones. It is located in the suburb of Kutna Hora. It is estimated that there are approximately 40,000-70,000 human skeletons that make up all the decorations inside the chapel. The church is only worth about maybe a 15-30 minute visit, but a must see on your stop to Kutna Hora.
