Marina Bay is a tourist attraction that is located on a patch of reclaimed land in the South China Sea and consists of commercial areas and tourist attractions in Miri. Further south is where the marina is located, making it possible to park boats and yachts within reach of the city center and waterfront areas.
There are currently a few development of shop houses on the reclaimed land - known as the Marina Parkcity and within Times Square and Marina Square II. The picturesque commercial area features tree-lined streets, squares and verdant parks and fountains, and boasts a one kilometer long boardwalk and linear park where people can enjoy a leisurely walk or cycle or dine at restaurants while enjoying the views, the breeze, and the sound of the sea.

On June 10, 1945, troops of the Australian 9th Division occupied Labuan Island. Within 11 days, they had landed on the mainland and liberated Miri and Seria. 
The Al-Taqwa Mosque was built about 30 years ago, and is one of the larger mosques in Miri. 
To picture Miri when the township came to know oil, we have to project ourselves into a very different past. When the original Shell men arrived, it consisted of 20 scattered houses and a few shops. These included a bazaar, a gambling farm, a pawn shop and an Arab shop. The trade of Miri consisted chiefly of jelutong, brassware, belachan and budu.
