Treehouse History !
The Treehouse has its own history since the 90's when the Tungurahua Volcano startedd to erupt, on those days there wasn't any good technology to help to monitoring the Vulcano, so the best way to inform about the Tungurahua Activity was watching it in real time.
One of those days the Tungurahua erupted wildely and the whole town had to be evacuated
as the Vulcano started to quite again the Banos people decided to return and live with an very active Vulcano above the City, and the treehouse became the best place to watch the small eruptions.
