The Museum, designed by Yoshio Taniguchi, uses the latest conservation techniques. A reference room on the mezzanine floor houses a "digital archive" where visitors can view horyuji's entire collection on their computers, with explanations in Japanese, Chinese, Korean, English and French. The restaurant is located on the ground floor.

When people pass through the green and branches of the makeup, they come to the horyuji treasure hall, where there is a platform floating on the water, and the flowing water reflects the outline of the building itself. The straight path into the exhibition hall gives people the feeling of crossing a waterway and being cleansed physically and mentally in the process.

As the sundial brings a wonderful performance on the main building, the moving lines between the halls and rooms also create different atmospheres according to the space design. The fence lines from the second floor cut the outdoor garden scenery, and the large French Windows in the distance reflect the water, with every Angle like poetry and painting, rolling in the green water.
