Following the trail of the movie in Montepulciano

The Twilight Saga: New Moon (2009) 🧛♂️🌕 One of the highlight scenes in New Moon is when Bella (Kristen Stewart) runs through the crowd to save Edward (Robert Pattinson) from revealing himself as a vampire during the town's celebration. 📍 Filming locations: • Piazza Grande (the town's main square): The spot where Bella runs through the crowd dressed in red. • Palazzo Comunale (the town hall): The building used as the base of the “Volturi.” • Ancient stone pathways around the town: Used for various running scenes of Bella. 🎥 Fun fact: In the New Moon novel, the event actually takes place in Volterra. However, the filmmakers chose Montepulciano instead due to its more beautiful architecture and convenience for filming. ⸻ ✅ For a truly immersive experience: • Visit in the morning to avoid crowds. • Take a photo in front of Palazzo Comunale to recreate the scene. • Try walking the same path Bella ran (from the alley below up to the square).
