Gradually a habit was formed, and the little ones packing out also threw bottle caps here, and then after it spread and took shape, everyone followed suit.

Finally, the nearby bars and so on will be specially packaged bottle caps sent here, this tradition probably lasted nearly 40 years.

Bottle cap alley, gradually rose to fame, and in the early 21st century, was officially considered a tourist attraction, with a sign "Bottle Cap Alley" erected at the entrance, and decorated with lights for people to play at night.

Due to the increase of tourists, some people like to take some bottle caps with them, so the caps are decreasing, and many companies are working to preserve it, and as many as 380,000 beer caps have been dumped by companies.
