About
Shuzheng Valley lies within Jiuzhaigou National Park in Aba Tibetan and Qiang Autonomous Prefecture, Sichuan Province, China. It is also known as Shuzheng Gou.
What you will see
The valley is a scenic run of terraced lakes, linked to one another by waterfalls and streams. Along the way you will notice the travertine formations that the park is known for, pale mineral deposits shaped over the water's course through the valley.
Why it matters on your visit
Shuzheng Valley forms the main entrance route into Jiuzhaigou, so for many visitors it is the first stretch of the park they experience. Walking or travelling through it gives a clear introduction to the landscape before you reach the park's other areas.
