The Ethnographic Museum is located in an old granary dating to the 16th century, where it is possible to see just how much attention the residents of Dubrovnik gave to the storage of grain. The Dubrovnik Republic kept all the state reserves of wheat, barley and millet in deep silos called 'rupe', carved out of stone and coated with a water-proof material that kept the grain at a temperature of 17ºC. The traditional rural economy and architecture of the Dubrovnik region is found on the First Floor. Folk costumes and textile handiwork can be seen on the 2nd Floor.

The Planty Park is a 4-kilometre long, horseshoe shaped park that encircles the Old Town. This is a perfect place for a relaxing stroll or a lunch on one of the many benches in the shadow, to take a pause from the daily sightseeing.
