[2][3][4] The current building, called The Temple among the Trees Beneath the Clouds (雲林廟), was built in 1874 to replace earlier structures which had been destroyed by fires the year previous.
The state decided that, in order to protect the historic nature of the material, a local resident, Moon Lim Lee, would be named trustee for the site.
The state of California commissioned a new pair of dogs to place on display in the temple.
The interior of the temple remains the same as it looked when it was built, although safety railings and electric lights have been added.
On the grounds, there is a recently added parking lot, visitor center, and reflecting pool.
