Miri District trip planner

No less than three national parks surround Miri District, containing gigantic cave systems, otherworldly limestone pinnacles, and miles upon miles of tropical rainforest filled with rare and endangered wildlife and vegetation. When you're ready for a break from hiking, caving, and ecotourism, head to the district's eponymous main city. Flush with oil money and home to a diverse mix of Southeast Asians, expats, and international students, the city of Miri gives off a modern, cosmopolitan vibe. You'll find an extensive range of eateries and bars, plenty of entertainment, and lots of friendly travelers on their way to and from the national parks or nearby Brunei. Outside of the bustling city, a tour of Miri District reveals a much stronger connection to tribal traditions, with a few indigenous museums and cultural attractions dotted around.
