Taiwan - Chenjean's Village, Evidences of Past Tourism

As mentioned in this post from a few days ago, a thriving tourist trade, one that perpetuated a brisk flow of people through the little town year-round, fell by the wayside when they closed the falls to public viewing.  Many businesses closed, which slowly resulted in the abandoned houses seen in subsequent posts.  But evidence of those bygone days extend beyond the village, along the route to where the falls are located.  The picture above features a railing no longer maintained, and below is an abandoned vendor stall where they sold who-knows-what, crumbling and overgrown:


And, very sadly, this is where the ancestors of our friend the monkey might have ended up as a spectacle for curious eyes on the way to the falls:
