Hello fellow Steemians,
I hope you are all having a great weekend! :) 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 @impi:
From Štěchovice to Třebenice, according to the Vltava River, the hills of the Svatojánské Streams were thundering wildly, along the slopes of the hills a hiking trail. You will see the paths of the Svatoojánských Stream settlements from the viewpoints on the right bank of the Vltava River. You climb the forest to run for a moment to the water, climb again, and walk through the tunnel in the rock.

In Prague, we can find motives for interesting photos in each corner or each square. This photo was taken at Kranner’s Fountain. It is a monument built during the rule of Emperor Franz Joseph. It has different sculptures that represent the different regions of the Czech lands. In the image there is one of these figures, and behind it there is a building of interesting architecture.

View of the Cvilin Lookout Tower, one of the most dominant features of the Silesian town of Krnov. Built in 1903, the tower is located on the top of the Cvilin Hill with its foot being 436 m above the sea level, thus offering some breathtaking views of the surrounding landcape and the town itself.

This is a cool tower. All it needs it Rapunzel to dangel her hair out for someone to climb up. Great shot.

Berounka River, under the riverbed in Račice
In most of Europe, extreme heat is now. There has been no such heat and drought in the Czech Republic since 1947.
And if the heat and drought will last for a few weeks, it will be the worst drought since the temperatures measurement are going ... (From 1786).
The rivers turn into a narrow creek and a few meters from them there is already sunburned soil. And the sky still cloudless ...

St. Barbara Church
The Church was Beautifully Impressive and lovely to walk about inside and out.You can also walk upstairs to the gallery in the church and an outside balcony area. It was a really interesting place with some beautiful stained glass windows, paintings and some impressive carvings - including some 10 foot ones that look down from the upper gallery.

360 degree View from Petrin Tower!
I always liked to climb towers, so for me it was “a must” go. And it was well worth it. The view is spectacular and the climb was easy. If you can, take the staircase and enjoy the ascent bit by bit. The elevator can be crowded sometimes for only 4 or 5 people can enter at each time it goes up or down.
On the top the entire city is at your feet.

The Catholic Church of St. Ludmila is located in the Prague district of Vinohrady, on Mir Square. A majestic neo-Gothic temple with two high bell towers. Ludmila Czech is considered the first Slavic saint. The pagans strangled her with her own veil, and now Saint Lyudmila is depicted with a white kerchief. The Church of St. Ludmila is in operation, it belongs to the Roman Catholic Church and is open during the services.

SMETANOVA VYHLÍDKA. The Smetana Lookout is located at the top of the Kletecko hill (371 m) over the Štěchovice reservoir near the village of Třebsín and the village of Zahrádky. It was built in 1974 to commemorate the 150th anniversary of Bedřich Smetana's birth and consists of a concrete block with railing high above the surface of the Vltava River. From the bird's eye view we see the picturesque bend of the Štechovická dam, among the trees on the opposite bank we can imagine the cottages of the legendary settlement Ztracenka.

Prague Castle
To be here is not to stop in time, it is not to pause and observe history. It is to allow time to pass while it envelops us and makes us drunk with the interaction of people who come and go and contemplate the beauty of the structure of the castle, opening and closing doors between yesterday and the present in a thin line. We still aspire to have our wishes fulfilled and the castle and the historic center connect us with that emotion, and the possibility of having everything, just because you are a human being.

Beautiful St Ludmila! In the surrounding park you could go for a picnic while admiring this picturesque church. In front of the church, there is also a small market support where occasional events occur.

This is Prague most popular and touristic bridge. The gothic old town bridge tower is one of the must see in Prague.
Charles Bridge is a must visit if you are passing through Prague. The most iconic place and the most enjoyable. With great views and wonderful things to do around it. Like a visit to Strelecky Island and various wonderful cafes and restaurants!

The Church of St. Nicholas is located directly on the Old Town Square. The church is small, but very beautiful and cozy. There are amazing concerts here. The Church of St. Nicolas is a beautiful example of Baroque church and probably represents one of the most beautiful baroque churches.

In the footprints of the past: history comes alive in the capital of Czech Republic! The history of the Jews in Prague is one of Central Europe's oldest and most well-known. The old Jewish cemetery, the synagogues or many other remnants are signs of a flourishing and dynamic past worth to be explored.

The "Old Town Square", the main square of the Old Town, has buildings from all eras. It is represented from Gothic to modern times every style. The monument to Jan Hus dominates the place by its size. The Old Town Hall houses the famous Astronomical Clock, which is currently being restored and therefore is unfortunately not visible. It will be open again from October.

This is an 11 meter tall moving statue of Kafka located in a non descriptive area of artistic Prague. It is a combination of modern art with extraordinary mechanics. The different sections of the statue move to form the entire face. It is an amazing piece of art, mechanics and creativity. It takes a few minutes for the moving statue to complete Kafka's face. Bring your camera and share with the world. A must see.

It was a nice 2-hour walk along Adrspach. Very unique sandstone landscape. Not too crowded. You have to be reasonably able to reach all places, but nothing heavy. We went through the whole circuit and I have not seen such a splendor for a long time. There are stairs, walk through the rocks and enjoy the beautiful nature. Everything is clearly and comprehensibly labeled.
