Miri Oil Well No.1 (Grand Old Lady) Highlights: Must-See Features and Attractions
Some information may have been translated by Google Translate
Miri is also known as the oil city, and the No. 1 well standing on the Canadian Hill is the country's first onshore oil well, which marks Miri's century of oil exploration history. Today, this abandoned oil well has been listed as one of the monuments under the custody of the Sarawak state government. The well has been destroyed by wildfires twice, and in 1983, the National Oil Corporation funded the reconstruction and built a wall around the well to prevent it from being destroyed by wildfires again. Subsequently, in 2000, the Miri City Council also built a Liaoning Terrace there. Citizens and tourists can enjoy the panoramic view of Miri City and the charming night view from this historical scenic spot during the day or night.
