The Al Dhrafa Festival is the place to be to view over 20,000 camels that are brought from around the world to participate in the December Camel Beauty Festival. The camels are judged on their eyes, mouths, height, weight etc. The owners enter up to 50 camels to determine the herd with the highest ranking. This is an experience in Bedouin life and culture. An amazing event! #Red
