The Al Far racetrack in Al Shahaniya is the place to be during April for the Emirs Camel Race. This race is a popular attraction for tourists and Qataris alike. Camels and their riders compete for the prestigious Golden Sword as well as a number of other prizes and trophies. The ungainly stride of the camels and the shouting of their riders as they try to convince their steeds to run in a straight line is worth the drive to Al Shahaniya.
