The start of the Al-Sirr camel race on November 19, 2025 in El Hassana, Egypt. The Al-Sirr camel race is one of the most culturally significant and widely celebrated sporting events among the Bedouin communities of Sinai. Every year, Bedouin tribes gather here to hold this traditional race, an event that preserves its authentic heritage. Unlike modern camel races elsewhere, the Bedouin here do not use robotic jockeys or advanced racing technologies. Instead, the camels are ridden by young boys aged approximately 5 to 16, maintaining a long-standing cultural practice. (Photo by Ali Moustafa/Getty Images)
