TAIPEI (Reuters) - A Chinese official left Taiwan on Friday after a turbulent visit that produced landmark trade agreements but also sparked angry protests that show the scars a half-century of enmity have inflicted.

Chen Yunlin, China's top negotiator on Taiwan affairs, departed for Beijing shortly before 10:30 a.m. local time, completing the highest-level visit to the island by a Communist leader since the end of the Chinese civil war in 1949.
