Abstract
The paper discusses descriptions of Serbian settlements and fading customs left by various travellers. The analysed records were made between 15th and the end of 19th century. The majority of these travelogues were written by the members of Western diplomatic missions visiting Ottoman Empire. At the time one of the main routes heading to Constantinople was “Carigradski drum”, the most important road in Serbia and in the Balkans. Two main settlements on the Serbian section of the road were Belgrade and Niš. Their food and open markets made one of the most important impressions. On the other hand, provincial inns offered modest accommodation and food.
