The impact of the 7.4 magnitude earthquake in Taiwan

Chang Hsin had just woken up in the Taiwanese city of Hualien on Wednesday when her entire block started shaking.

"The walls were crumbling. Shortly after, another quake hit, causing the entire house to tilt," the 59-year-old told the BBC.

Ms Chang was in her third floor apartment when the 7.4 magnitude earthquake hit, which killed nine people and left more than 1,000 injured in Taiwan's worst earthquake in 25 years.
