What to See & Do in Miri? 

Miri is a city rich in history, especially with the discovery of oil in 1910. Oil wells were quickly drilled and the sleepy town quickly started to prosper, attracting petroleum companies to set up base there. The town has a special mention in wartime history as it was the first place the Japanese army set foot in Borneo during WW II. 

Miri is a very prosperous city at present and houses many cultural and heritage attractions. As the foundation of its growth rests on petroleum, a visit to the Petroleum Museum at Bukit Tenaga is a must to understand the city’s prosperity. 

The Hua San Ching Tien Temple and Tua Pek Kong Temple are 2 places of worship worth a visit to Miri. The Lian Hua San Ching Tien Temple is believed to be the largest Taoist temple in Southeast Asia. Both temples are adorned with intricately carved statues of dragons and other mythological creatures. 

Annually, the Borneo Jazz Festival in Miri is one of the most unique jazz festivals in the world, attracting renowned jazz artists to Miri. Dubbed as “Jazz in the Jungle’, this festival has successfully hosted over 17 editions to date. 

The biggest attraction of Miri, however, is not in the city. Miri is the jumping off point to Gunung Mulu National Park. A spectacular rainforest park believed to be older than 60 million years, the park is a UNESCO World Heritage Site that is also home to the 2377-metre-high Gunung Mulu. 

Another spectacular national attraction is the Niah National Park. Located about 100 kms to the south of the city, the Niah Great Cave with its massive chambers hold evidence of human remains dating back to some 40,000 years ago.
