Views from Canada Hill
by Willettsworld
Canada Hill, also known as Oil Well Hill, sits to the east of the city centre and is where you'll find Miri's famous landmark and national monument, the Grand Old Lady, the first oil well that was dug in Malaysia back in 1910. You'll also find the interesting Petroleum Museum here as well. The views over the city are pretty good plus the view looking in the opposite direction are of countryside and palm oil plantations.

Lambir Bukit Patu
by Lexpat
Located in the lambir Hill national park, this hike is an easy one that will take you from two to thre hours round trip.
What makes it special? Well it's a short and more accessible hike still providing all the beauties of the rain forest and the amazing view over the canopy once you reach the top. Same as for Lambir Hill but 1.5 liter of water should be enough.
Fabulous Seafood
by BorneoGrrl about Local Miri Seafood Restaurants
By virtue of being on the coast, Miri has got some of the best seafood places. You mustn't miss the chance of dining at any of them. Most seafood restaurants here are in the open air so you can enjoy the food and the atmosphere. Go in the evenings when it is a little cooler.
The prices are pretty reasonable as well, but do be careful as some restaurants do not have menus to show the prices, so try to agree on the prices of the items when you order You have to try the buttered prawns, steamed fish, deep fried calamari and tom yam soup. Mmmmmmmm...............
Cemetery Miri
by balhannah
If you like looking at cemeteries, (I do) then there is a huge chinese one here. I found it interesting, the headstones on lots were beautiful.
Its so big, you can easily see it when flying in.
Also, if you head to the older part of Mir, there is actually another cemetery located in the centre of a divided road.
