华北自然生态博物馆位于平遥古城外 15 分钟车程的天鹭湖文化创意园。博物馆由中国猫科动物保护联盟（下简称猫盟）筹备和运营。

The Northern China Ecology Museum is a 15-minute drive North from the Pingyao Historical Town, within the Tianlu Lake Cultural Precinct. The Museum is operated and managed by the China Felid Conservation Alliance (CFCA), a non-for-profit organisation focused on conservancy efforts in China with relation to the research and protection of Felidae species. As a non-government affiliated organisation, CFCA was very interested in exploring nature and ecological educational possibilities different and complementary to the typical state operated ones in China.

博物馆试图创造一种新型的沉浸式生态教育空间。在生态模型创造的奇幻世界中、轻松、身临其境的体验中，公众得以了解华北生态系统，了解人类与自然生态的共生关系。在这个“第二自然”中，原有的建筑空间框架被淡化，模型和展览内容成为焦点。生态模型的上下起伏塑造出空间，随山地上下起伏，随着森林压缩，也随着湿地、农田开阔。模型中植入了最典型的生态成员，从泥土，到菌类，植物，动物，大至树木，小到昆虫，青苔。有限的空间里被折叠进无穷的细节，每个人都能在博物馆里找到属于自己的森林，原本普通的空间便被转变成一个“第二自然”。
