When traveling abroad, whether the destination needs a visa and whether it is cheap and good is very important. In a city not far from Our country, seafood is hugely cheap and the merchants do not slaughter customers, star hotels 200 yuan a night, and everywhere talk about Chinese, fun landscape a lot, electronic signature a day on the approval of approval, say go away where exactly?
The place is Miri! It is the second largest city in the Malaysian state of Sarawak and is adjacent to Brunei. Although not a popular destination, the tourism resources are really topping:
Although it is only a coastal city, the colorful and transparent waters, pure and undeveloped beaches are even recommended by Lonely Planet, and shipwrecks and oil drilling dive sites are the new favorites of divers, and are known as "Sipadan in the 90s";
Star hotels 200 yuan a night there is a transaction, crab 50 yuan two pounds, delicious lobster is more famous;
There are many local Chinese, the hotel restaurant attraction map has Chinese service, and even the fruit shop can communicate with Chinese;
The small city actually hides 4 forest parks, 40,000-year-old caves and mysterious headhunters, which is a good place for us to wash our lungs and hunt for curiosity for those who have lived in big cities for a long time! What else is there to do in Miri? After reading this article, you will know!
When you first arrive in Miri, what hotel should you look for? The Yellow Sandalwood Boutique Hotel, ranked #1 on TripAdvisor, is one of the best boutique hotels in All East Malaysia, just 7 km from Miri Airport and located in the city centre, next to a shopping mall (convenient for buying specialties) and a 24-hour launderette, where Chinese are spoken at the front desk. Such a good hotel at least four or five hundred yuan a night, right? 250 yuan / night / 2 people also included breakfast, it is so affordable!

Go to the coastal cities of course to open the belly to eat seafood, Miri's seafood resources are no less than the island, the local production of wild lobster is absolutely eye-opening, all kinds of meat crabs, shellfish, fish, all on the same day of fishing on the table, affordable prices in the country can not be seen at all!
Elephant mussels are equivalent to 60 yuan and two catties, and sea crabs are 50 yuan and two catties
Let us think of Malaysian food in any restaurant can be eaten, the salty sea water for the background of the sweetness of seafood; farmers market fruit for a few ringgit can be harvested a big bunch; colorful mille-feuille cake soft glutinous; tired on the street and then a cup of coix water to quench thirst, the more people are more cost-effective, all of the above add up to 100 yuan per capita is enough.
Although there is no direct flight from China to Miri, but the transfer from Kuala Lumpur / Kota Kinabalu is also very convenient, two-way round trip only needs 1500 yuan, AirAsia also often has a big promotion, buy cheaper on the member day!
Although young people have been learning English for more than ten years, if you bring the elderly and children, it is more convenient to find a country where you can communicate with Chinese. There are many Chinese in Meili, and the streets are full of Chinese signs, so that we can travel without communication worries, and we can easily find the route with our own ability.

When it comes to diving in horses, most people will think of Semporna, Sipadan, etc., but in fact, Miri is not bad, if you are not a very professional diver, Miri's coral garden and whale sharks can already make us jaw-dropping:
Miri has a long coastline, there are no cliffs at the bottom of the water, and the underwater depth of up to 20 meters is full of coral reefs, the water quality and visibility are good, even snorkeling can harvest the strange underwater world;
Malaysia's first abandoned oil well dive site, the Siwa Oil Well, is dotted with colorful corals, and the famous WWII shipwreck Atago Maru has now become a hotbed for large flocks of swallowfish and Jackfish, and has been certified by a number of diving magazines as "Asia's Best Shipwreck Dive Site".
Miri-Sibuti Coral Reefs National Park, as a habitat for hundreds of species of corals, foam corals, giant anemones, 3-meter-large gorgonian corals as natural models, attract thousands of underwater photographers every year to explore...
Tusan Beach, which is to be developed in the original ecology, has been called the new favorite of the locals in recent years due to the frequent appearance of blue tears, when the blue tears appear, the whole sea turns blue, strolling on the beach, recording their travel experience step by step, as if inadvertently breaking into the magical world;
The fine sand and gentle slopes of Dushan Beach make it a great place to watch the sunset. In the evening, the gentle rays of the setting sun and the lively waves set off the unique scenery of "horse drink by the sea", and the colorful sky makes the place beautiful like an oil painting.
In addition to stunning sea views, Miri is also dotted with four national parks, spectacular waterfalls, strange and magnificent limestone, mysterious caves spanning 40,000 years, and lush tropical rainforests that make hikers stop and satisfy the imagination of tourists for rainforest adventures.
A 40-minute drive from the city centre to Lambir Hills National Park, where hundreds of different species of animals weave in front of you, giving us a journey through the wilderness. Walking through sparsely populated steps and suspension bridges, smelling the fragrance of grass and trees, and watching waterfalls pour down, it is also a lot of fun.
Located in the Niah National Park, Nya Cave is a world-famous archaeological cave that unearthed 40,000-year-old modern human skulls and a thousand-year-old mural that documents the history of Malaysia. The cave is home to tens of thousands of bats and swiftlets and is the source of the local bird's nest. Put on rain boots and carry a flashlight, wait until noon, the sun shines through the skylight into the cave, for this cave exploration is the biggest finishing touch!
If you want to carry out this expedition to the end, visit the Iban Longhouse and visit the local indigenous tribes. The Iban, a branch of the Indigenous Daya people of Borneo, also known as the "Heidayas", once hunted for human heads as a symbol of courage, and the longhouse is a unique form of architecture of the Iban.
Today we can visit or even stay in the longhouse, which still preserves many traditional elements, including handicrafts with tribal totems, skulls representing the glory of the past, and the traditional headhunting dance performed by the warriors.
Once known as the "Oil City", Well 1 in Mount Canada is Malaysia's first oil well, revered as "The grand old lady", a historic well that, although discontinued in 1972, has been preserved and transformed into a tourist landmark, and the site has been transformed into the Petroleum Museum Miri. Climb Canada Hill to learn not only about the history of Malaysia, but also overlook the beautiful scenery of Miri and the surrounding area.
