Jiuzhaigou Shuzheng Village is one of the three Tibetan villages that still remain in the Jiuzhaigou Nature Reserve today. Jiuzhaigou derives its name from the nine Tibetan hamlets that once ran along its length. Although only traces of these villages remain today, what remains has now been taken over by tourism. One of these is Shuzhengzhai, or Shuzheng Village, a Tibetan village close to Shuzheng Lake.

Most of the inhabitants of Jiuzhaigou have been moved out of the park, so that the area can be kept pristine. At Shuzheng Village, tourists is confronted by mass commercialism. There is a lot of Tibetan souvenir that one can buy here.
