In 2002, the school moved out, and it was managed by the cultural relics department to protect and develop the temple. In August 2018, as a folk museum in Xi'an, Dongyue Temple was officially opened to the public for free.

It is a stunning Xi'an Museum; even compared with the famous Shaanxi History Museum, I prefer the modern architectural design and simple display layout.
