The Presidential Palace has been the office and residential place of a number of important officials in Chinese history since the Ming Dynasty (1368-1644), with a history spanning over 600 years. It now serves as China's largest museum of the country's contemporary history.

Covering an area of 9 hectares, the palace features offices, a secretariat and the subsidiary organs of the National Government as well as the typical Hui-style ancient gardens of southern China. A series of exhibition halls and historical data displays can also be found here.
