ADIHEX – the largest in the Arabian Peninsula equestrian and hunting exhibition, which has been held in Abu Dhabi since 2003 and has been devoted to the preservation of cultural heritage, traditions and the environment of the UAE and the Gulf region. The exhibition has received international recognition and has become a major venue, which attracts both the local community and genuine hunting and equestrian enthusiasts from all over the world.

Attention of exhibition visitors was deserved by an exhibit of Classic Jewelry House "Lobortas", which presented the unique ring "Tsarevna Swan" with the largest number of diamonds in the world, official world record holder. Sophisticated falconers were amazed by Diamond Falcon jewelry sculpture. It took more than 12000 diamonds to create it. It is their supersmall shine lets precisely convey the pressed by the air flow look of feathers, that reinforced and emphasized very elaborate artisans' work. Quick as a lightning, the diving shot of the bird is incomprehensibly caught, seeming that it is able to outstrip the bow arrow.

The popular event was attended by 119,000 people.
