The Da Vinci Code
Scotland’s Movie Filming Locations: The Da Vinci Code
The Da Vinci Code, the bestselling novel by Dan Brown, captivated readers around the world with its thrilling mystery and intricate plot - I was hooked from the first page. The film adaptation, directed by Ron Howard and starring Tom Hanks, brought the story to life on the big screen.
It was filmed all over the place with scenes taking place in London, Paris, Malta and, of course, in Scotland. Arguably the best scene in the entire film, and the finale!
