Taiwan 's Hualien County relies on tourism for 70% of its economy.
Tourism officials estimate that a return to pre-quake tourism levels could take years .
The 7.4 magnitude earthquake that struck Taiwan on April 3 was the largest tremor to hit Taiwan in 25 years .
Tourism is estimated to be around NT$15 billion by end of the year.
Markets, which usually serve locals, are suffering because locals aren't making money.
"If tourists don't come, our business suffers significantly," says a market vendor.
Despite that, Hualien 's residents hope that tourists will soon come back, so that life can return to normal.
"There is hope," says Lai Sui-er , "We will find a way".
