Towns and Villages of Tuscany and Elba

Elba

Montepulciano

This town was, understandably, used as a film location for the second film in the Twilight movies, with the iconic scenes (when Bella saves Edward’s life) shot in the piazza Grande and the Palazzo del Commune. Why not end your trip with a visit to one of the historic wine cellars here?
