Miri, Coastal commercial center in Sarawak, Malaysia
Located near the border of Brunei, Miri extends along the South China Sea coast and contains modern buildings, markets, and extensive parks.
The discovery of oil by Royal Dutch Shell in 1910 transformed Miri from a fishing village into a significant industrial center in Sarawak.
The San Ching Tian Temple, established in 2000, stands as the largest Taoist temple in Southeast Asia, displaying traditional Chinese architecture.
Miri Airport operates domestic and international flights, while the city offers varied accommodation options and efficient public transportation networks.
The Petroleum Museum sits atop Canada Hill, marking Malaysia's first oil well and documenting the region's industrial development since 1910.
