BRIEF ITINERARY:
Our orientation and city tour will start with a drive to Canada Hill overlooking the city. You will be briefed on the historical development of Miri City, developed rapidly from a small village in the 1800s to a very cosmopolitan and modern city. This has been largely due to the influence of oil discovery when Malaysia's first oil was spud in 1910. This oil well known as The Grand Old Lady sits as a relic on Canada Hill and continue on to visit the bustling Farmer's Market or commonly called the "Tamu" where you will see the vaious local vegetables, fruits and foods bought in by the natives and local farmers from around Miri. Other highlights include Miri Heritage and Old China Town.
