干海子是玉龙雪山东面的一个天然草甸牧场，地势平缓起伏,干海子全长4公里左右，宽1.5公里，海拔约2900米，来到干海子给人一种开阔空旷的感觉，在高耸入云的玉龙雪山东坡面前，有这样一个大草甸，为游人提供了一个观赏玉龙雪山的好场地，在这里横看玉龙雪山、扇子陡等山峰历历在目。从干海子草甸到4500米的雪线，可以看到各种各样的花草树木，兰花、野生牡丹、雪莲，品种繁多；高大乔木有云南松、雪松、冷杉、刺栗、麻栗等等,衬着雪山远景，这里是观景拍照的理想之地。每年春暖花开，在草萌发，住在干海子附近山涧的藏、彝、纳西族牧民们都要带上毡篷，骑着高头大马，驱赶着牦牛、羊群、黄牛，到草甸放牧，不时眼前还有牦牛走过，一派高原牧场风光。

Dry Sea (Ganhai)

Dry Sea was an ice erosion lake. However, over countless years the water in it decreased and finally disappeared. That's the reason people call it Dry Sea. Nowadays it is a beautiful meadow surrounded by mountains on three sides. When you are there you will feel that the field of vision is extremely vast. The whole is very quiet and serene. It seems that this is the Xanadu. The big and comfortable green grassland looks like a blanket, stretching itself into the great distance. During a particular time between every spring and summer various kinds of flowers are in blossom with a spirit of competition. At this time the whole area will become a sea of flowers.

Dry Sea lies in the eastern part of the Jade Dragon Snow Mountain. At the Dry Sea you can be assured of a panoramic view of the mountain because Dry Sea is the closest and best place to witness the beauty of Jade dragon Snow Mountain. In addition to the view, there are many kinds of convenience facilities and areas to rest for visitors.
