The places here spread further east to west than north to south: 340 km from Karlovy Vary to Kroměříž Castle. The busiest part of the map is around Charles Bridge, Prague, near the middle of the map, with Karlštejn Castle and Konopiště Castle within 45 km.
Expect to lose points here, because at least half the photos are rated hard. Photos rated hard include Český Krumlov, Kroměříž Castle and Karlovy Vary. Charles Bridge, Prague is rated easy. Plzeň is the city where Pilsner beer was invented in 1842.
The daily in the app mixes photos from all 167 countries in the game, five a day, the same five for everyone.
