The Medieval hilltop town of Montepulciano in the south of Tuscany is part of the Province of Siena and home to ancient cathedrals, beautiful Renaissance palaces, and other historic architecture. The town is most well known in today’s pop culture as the filming location of the vampire saga movie New Moon and sites such as the Piazza Grande can be busy with tourists. One of the best times to visit Montepulciano is during the annual barrel-racing competition in August. Montepulciano is less than two hours from Florence and a top center for wine tasting, culinary tours, and visiting the south of Tuscany.
