The Great Sand Sea is a massive canyon[1] in Essos, just east of the Bone Mountains and southeast of the Krazaaj Zasqa.[2][3] The Steel Road skirts around the north of the Great Sand Sea, while farther to the north are the Howling Hills.

Cities between the Great Sand Sea and the Bone Mountains include Kayakayanaya just to the northwest, Samyriana in the central region, and Bayasabhad to the southwest. On the other side of the Great Sand Sea are Tiqui to the southeast and Trader Town between its center and the Shrinking Sea, on the opposite side as Samyriana.

Behind the scenes

The Great Sand Sea has not yet been mentioned in the A Song of Ice and Fire novels and only appears in the map collection of The Lands of Ice and Fire.
