Since its founding in 2013, the museum has advanced its mission to promote the age-old history, splendid culture, diverse functions, and remarkable achievements of Chinese gardens, earning the reputation of a "living" museum. As a public cultural institution, it has collected artifacts related to gardens, researched their historical value, showcased their charm, and promoted Chinese cultural heritage over the years.

Covering an area of 65,000 square meters with a floor space of 43,950 square meters, the museum comprises ten exhibition halls in its main building, three indoor gardens, and three outdoor exhibition areas, presenting two permanent exhibitions and four thematic exhibitions. The museum incorporates the characteristics of classical Chinese gardens into the design of its display areas, making its ambience more immersive and impressive. Such garden-like exhibition space arranged in a vivid and natural way distinguishes the museum from others.

The indoor gardens capture the essence of southern Chinese gardens through three attractions: Changyuan Garden, Yuyin Mountain Garden, and Pianshi Rockery Garden. The outdoor exhibition areas, designed according to the terrain, consist of three northern Chinese gardens: Tower Shadow Garden, Mountain Villa Awash with Morning Glow, and Half Mu Mini Garden.

The museum showcases over 200 types of plants and more than ten types of rocks. Its collection of artifacts covers 16 categories, including pottery, porcelain, woodwork, and rare books from different periods in the Chinese history, providing a comprehensive display of the development of Chinese gardens.

As a national education base, the museum also offers resources of science popularization, study tours and off-campus practice for residents and students in Beijing.
