Built in 1823 (Daoguang 3), it is primarily dedicated to the Three Mountain Kings. This temple is the center of faith for the residents of Zhuolan Township and is the oldest temple in the Zhuolan area. The ancient bell of Eolun Temple has a complex historical story. In 1941, the Japanese army forcibly collected copper and ironware from civilians to manufacture ammunition. The ancient bell was confiscated and sent to Dahu County Office. For several decades, everyone thought the ancient bell had been melted down to make weapons and no longer existed. One day, Mr. Chang Li-chun, the temple keeper of Eolun Temple, was passing by Dahu Police Station (the old site of Dahu County Office) and discovered that the "警鐘" (警 bell) in the station's backyard was actually the ancient bell of Eolun Temple that he used to often clean. After several negotiations with the Eolun Management Committee, the ancient bell that had been lost for 40 years finally returned to the bell tower of Eolun Temple in 1982.
