The overall appearance of the building draws on the "several" shape of the Yellow River, harmonizing with the surrounding area.

The height of the building is 40 meters, divided into one underground floor and four floors above ground. According to the functional division of the building, the north side of the main exhibition area, the south side of the service education area and archives, libraries and other supporting facilities. The exhibition space of 40,000 square meters will reveal the history, culture and ecology of the Yellow River through four thematic exhibition areas, in addition to a wealth of temporary exhibitions and interactive experience areas.

The rooftop design of the Yellow River National Museum is also very ingenious, with a green roof design that extends the natural scenery of the national park to the rooftop terrace, where visitors can enjoy an extraordinary view of the majestic Yellow River to the north and the beautiful Zhengzhou city skyline to the south.

The interior of the building is a continuation of the exterior design and material concept. The main body of the building spans the landscaped waterfront with the main visitor entrance located below. The curved fa?ade creates the impression of water washing over the building, and a metal ceiling runs the length of the main tour route, visually guiding visitors along the way.

It is worth mentioning that the Yellow River National Museum is displayed in a "point" way, through the Yellow River Museum Area, Huayuankou Ruins Area and other historical and cultural display areas with different themes, and the Yellow River Beach Ecological Park and Sosu River Ruins Park to form a "surface" landscape, so as to display the Yellow River National Museum. "It will display the overall appearance and historical pattern of the Yellow River culture by forming a "face" landscape with the Yellow River Beach Ecological Park and Sosu River Ruins Park through different theme historical and cultural display areas such as Yellow River Museum Area, Huayuankou Ruins Area, etc., and reveal the connotation of the Yellow River culture in a comprehensive way.
