It is one of the eight Chinese museums jointly built by the central and local governments as well as a comprehensive museum that is the biggest in scale and boasts the largest collection of cultural relics in the province.

理由二
荆风楚韵的独特文化魅力
湖北省博物馆主体建筑具有浓郁的楚风楚韵，分三期建设，全部建成后总建筑面积达11万平方米，展览面积3万余平方米。展览以“彰显荆楚文化魅力、展示湖北文明发展历程、突出馆藏文物特点、体现最新学术研究成果”为理念，结合我馆藏品资源丰富、考古成果众多、文物特色鲜明的优势，分为专题陈列和通史陈列两种类型。
The main buildings of the HBPM have a strong Chu-culture flavour. The construction will be carried out in three phases. When completed, it is expected to cover a floor area of 110,000 square metres and to provide an exhibition area of 30,000-plus square metres. The exhibitions aim to 'manifest the charming Jing-Chu culture, showcase the development of civilisation in Hubei Province, highlight the characteristic collection of cultural relics, and reflect the latest academic research findings'. Taking advantage of our numerous archaeological achievements and distinctive, eclectic collection of cultural relics, we offer exhibitions on specific themesas well as those on general history.
专题陈列主要以馆藏最具地方特色的楚文物、音乐文物、曾侯乙墓、梁庄王墓、越王勾践剑等重大考古发现、馆藏重器为主；设通史陈列“极目楚天”，通过史前石家河、商代盘龙城，楚秦竹简、三国文物、明代藩王文物，以及湖北新政、辛亥风云等历史事件，全面、系统地勾画出湖北的古代文明进程和近代发展脉络的画卷。
The thematic exhibitions focus on major archaeological discoveries with profound local characteristics, such as the cultural relics of the State of Chu, musical artefacts, the tomb of Marquis Yi of Zeng, the tomb of Prince Zhuang of Liang and the sword of King Goujian of Yue. The exhibitions on general history, featuring Shijiahe of the prehistoric era, Panlongcheng of the Shang dynasty, bamboo slips of the State of Chu and the Qin dynasty, cultural relics of the Three Kingdoms Period, and those left by the military governors of the Ming dynasty as well as displays regarding the Hubei New Policy, the 1911 Xinhai Revolution and other historical events, serve to systematically outline the province's ancient civilisation and modern development.

理由三
多元开放的文化服务理念
本馆秉承开放办馆理念，不断提升基本陈列水平的同时，每年引进十多个具有鲜明特色的临展、特展，满足广大观众对文化的各种需求，为大众提供更好的服务，向社会展示湖北省博物馆全新的面貌。
The HBPM is open to the general public. While constantly improving our basic exhibitions, we introduce more than a dozen temporary or special exhibitions with distinctive characteristics every year to meet the varied demand of the audience, provide the public with better services and show the community an ever newer look.
博物馆是一个不追求营利的、为社会和社会发展服务的、向公众开放的永久性公益机构。2007年11月，湖北省博物馆率先向社会免费开放，并由此开启了中国博物馆全方位免费开放的时代，从而让更多的观众走进博物馆，共享中国改革发展的成果。博物馆人与时俱进，用自己的奉献精神与锐意进取，让博物馆文化更多地惠及民众，为促进博物馆事业的发展谱写出了华美的乐章。
A museum should be a permanent public welfare institution that is non-profit and open to the public and serves society as well as its development. In November 2007, the HBPM took the lead to open its door to the general public free of charge. Afterwards, all of the other Chinese museums followed suit to provide free admission so that more people could share the fruits of China's reform and development. Keeping abreast with the times and forging ahead with determination, we must continue to benefit people with museum culture and further contribute towards the promotion of museum undertakings.

博物馆不仅是历史的保存者和记录者，也是中华民族伟大复兴的中国梦的见证者和参与者。我们将努力探索博物馆发展的新模式，把为人民服务、为社会服务作为博物馆一切工作的出发点和落脚点，强化博物馆社会服务与体验功能，增强博物馆的亲和力、吸引力和创造力，为观众提供多元化的文化服务，满足公众的精神文化需求，让参观博物馆、体验优秀传统文化成为人民群众日常生活的重要组成部分，让全民共享博物馆的发展成果。
A museum is not only a preserver and recorder of history, but also a witness and participant of the Chinese dream of the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation. We will work hard to explore new development models for our museum and take serving the people and society as the starting point and goal of our work. We will make our museum better serve the community, provide greater experiences and be more approachable, appealing and creative. We will provide audiences with diversified cultural services to meet their spiritual and cultural needs. We will help people to form a habit of visiting museums and experiencing splendid traditional culture in their everyday lives and see that everyone shares in the fruits of museum development.
我们诚挚地邀请您走进湖北省博物馆，探寻荆楚文明，感受历史之美。
We sincerely invite you to step into the HBPM to explore the Jing-Chu civilisation and experience the beauty of history.
