The treasure market

For most of the visitors, this can be a major attraction. These markets outside the festival walls have antique treasures of ornaments, crockery and the like. The bottom part of this picture is an antique Yemeni Gaza, an oil lamp used in olden times.
Colours and Colours!

Janadriyah Festival hosts sellers from all over the country to display and sell their products, mostly handicrafts.
   
   
Camel beauty pageant

Cute camels embellished with ornaments that parade through the crowd is a beautiful sight. These specially bred Arabian camels or dromedaries are used on special occasions and for camel racing.
Traditional Irrigation

The traditional way of irrigation with the help of camels or donkeys are found even now at some rural areas of Saudi Arabia. These fading traditions are kept alive in the festival that are rare sights for the new generation.

The water is drawn using Dalow (leather bucket) from a deep well called Al-Sawany
