It was built in 1986, and has a total area of about 8 acres. Dali Bai Autonomous Prefecture Museum is the first Autonomous Prefecture Museum in Yunnan Province. The architectural style of the museum combines ancient Dali and Bai together. It is a garden Museum with strong local ethnic minority's characteristics, which is also the central institution where the government of Dali Bai Autonomous Prefecture conducts cultural relic research, excavations, collecting, exhibiting and so on. From the surrounding pines and cypress, we can learn that the Museum adopts symmetric forms of layout. All of its constructions seem to be an integrated mass. The museum's exhibition hall shows the clear domestic house architectural style of Bai: "Three rooms and one wall screening, four joints and five courtyards". The museum itself is a great architectural work of art of the Bai ethnic minority which indeed worth visiting when traveling in Dali. Besides the characteristic architecture, we can also see many culture relics in the museum.
