Description
Residents wearing hard hats and carrying large backpacks stood outside a building Friday with a crumbling facade in Hualien, the epicentre of Taiwan's biggest earthquake in 25 years, waiting to be allowed in to collect their belongings.
The lobby's floor was littered with glass and broken tiles, and a calendar behind the reception had its page torn to April 3.
It marks a magnitude-7.4 tremor that was felt across the island. In epicentre Hualien, it left buildings tilted, tunnels crushed, and landslides tumbling down the mostly mountainous region. IMAGES AND SOUNDBITES
