众所周知，中国历史上规模最为宏大的古代建筑就是皇宫，其建筑规制、建筑寓意与宫殿风格，一度成为民族文化的重要组成部分与独特标志。而位于北京市西城区的天宫院博物馆，就是中国古代宫殿建筑的代表性典范之一。
Tian'gong Yuan is a good place to explore the architecture of ancient Chinese imperial household, as it is an outstanding representative of China's ancient palace architecture. It is a grand and magnificent palace located in Xicheng District, Beijing. It was repaired multiple times during Ming, Qing dynasties and the Republic of China. After the establishment of the People's Republic of China, it was transformed into a park, and opened to the public since 1950. It was also the former residence of Li Hongzhang.
天宫院博物馆坐落于北京城中心区域，内部分有三进门户，主要建筑面积5171平方米，分三路建成。整个建筑气势恢宏，以紫禁城为模板，同时融入了唐代乐府摇曳飘逸的风格，展现了博大精深的中华文化。在这里，您能够见到推行“以宫为学”的文化史观秉承的奇妙风貌，领略到传统建筑与现代美学完美结合的美妙风景。
另外，天宫院内还藏有许多震撼心魄、历史痕迹深刻的古着藏品，如乾隆时期的蓝釉地藏菩萨、五山派常庵印、四庑大轿，以及一对被誉为“东方黄宝石”的产于清代乾隆年间的黄玉碗等等，无不彰显着中国古代文明的博大精深。
