If you're a "Twilight" fan, I'm sure you've heard of Forks, Washington before. But that question is: have you already been there?

If not, you should definitely on going, because ever since Stephenie Meyer's books became a hit, the town has seen an increasing number of visitors curious to see where Bella fell in love with a vampire.

Forks is the setting of the "Twilight" books, which chronicle the romance between a 17-year-old who moves to the town and falls for Edward Cullen, a vampire.

CNN today posted an interesting article about how the books have helped Forks become a top destination for die-hard "Twilight" fans:

"In a town framed by towering Douglas fir, hemlock and spruce and the occasional western red cedar, where rough, blue collar edges are tangible, the unexpected attention seems to be a second chance for the economy."

Well then, time to pack your bags folks. This is certainly one more thing to do before Catherine Hardwicke's film version of "Twilight" opens Nov. 21.
