John Lennon Wall in Prague, Czech Republic, as it looked like back on 22nd of April 2017.

Canon 7D Mark II + Canon EF-S 10-18mm IS STM.
I made this panorama out of 13 pieces of different pictures I took of the wall (all taken at 10mm). I say pieces because I had to cut parts of some of the original images to remove tourists from them (popular place for selfies!), and overlap with other images to have the entire wall. I cropped top and sides slightly to fit them the best I could here.

Brief context [extract] as found in the blog florenceforfun:
"The John Lennon Wall symbolises freedom of speech and the non-violent resistance of the Czech youth. The wall started in 1980, shortly after Lennon was murdered. Although John Lennon never visited the location of the wall, it was crafted as a symbolic burial site by the youth of Prague. Young artists and activists took to the wall to thank Lennon and to continually spread his message. Lennon was admired by Central and Eastern European youth for his music that preached happiness and freedom, something they did not have during the Totalitarian-Communist era [...]" Now, as of August 2019, according to The Guardian:
"Prague’s Lennon wall, long a symbol of free expression and resistance to communist-era surveillance, is to be monitored by TV cameras and converted into an open-air gallery with graffiti strictly regulated, in an effort to tackle rampant vandalism and obscene artwork by drunken foreign tourists [...]" 😔
