This is the uniqueness of King Abdulaziz's camel festival in Saudi Arabia which is held annually. Every year, hundreds of thousands of spectators and more than 30,000 camels travel to the desert region of Al-Dahnaa to attend this festival, about 90 minutes south of Riyadh, the capital of Saudi Arabia.
This contest is the culmination of a month-long festival, a spectacle where beauty, tradition and extraordinary wealth become one. Hundreds of camels are paraded in front of the judges looking for the most elegant look of camels with characteristics including: long neck, nose shape, height, color, body size, how they walk, and the size of their ears.
