RIYADH: Under the patronage of Jouf Gov. Prince Faisal bin Nawaf bin Abdulaziz, the second Camel Auction kicked off in the Dumat Al-Jandal governorate.

The opening on Saturday evening saw a strong turnout, with participation from camel owners and investors across the Kingdom and the Gulf Cooperation Council countries.

The event blends cultural heritage with promising economic opportunities, the Saudi Press Agency reported on Sunday.

The auction featured camels noted for their lineage, beauty, and strength, as participants competed to attract investors and heritage enthusiasts.

Camels are an integral part of Saudi Arabia’s cultural identity, closely associated with desert life and deeply rooted in Arab heritage.

The event serves as a key platform to stimulate the camel market and promote knowledge exchange among breeders and traders, the SPA reported.

It also supports the local economy and helps preserve authentic cultural heritage.
