故宮博物院擁有世界上規(guī)模最大、保存最完整的木結構宮殿建筑群，收藏著各類珍貴文物186萬余件。明清官式建筑及其豐富的院藏是人類文明與智慧的結晶，其中蘊含的歷史、藝術、科學價值需要我們持續(xù)不斷地發(fā)掘。如何更好地保護、研究、闡釋、展示和弘揚故宮及其藏品蘊含的歷史文化，是我們的學術使命。

The Palace Museum is housed in the Forbidden City, the world's largest and best-preserved wooden-framed palace complex, which possesses a collection of more than 1.86 million priceless treasures. The official-styled (Guanshi) architecture of the Ming and Qing dynasties and the rich collections that reside here together represent the crystallization of human civilization and wisdom; their historical, artistic and scientific values deserve our continuous exploration. It has been our academic mission to explore how to better protect, research, interpret, display and transmit the history and culture contained in the Forbidden City and its collections.
