An American Participated In The Camel Festival Races This Year And His Camel Just Won
The Saudi Camel Federation is ongoing and a lot of interesting news keeps pouring out of the festival.
And one such story is of an American man who has been absolutely enchanted by the camel festival
He first visited the Winter At Tantura festival in Al-Ula and was extremely impressed with the camel races and this got him into looking into buying some of his own. And he ended up buying seven!
The total purchase cost SAR 6 million
The American man, who is going by the name of Qasim Abu Nasser, has also been completely obsessed with the Saudi Camel Federation and also participated this year.
