The largest city in northern New
Brunswick, Miramichi was formed in 1995 by the amalgamation of five neighbouring
towns. The city is located near the mouth of the Miramichi River, which drains
into the Gulf
of St. Lawrence. Miramichi is ethnically diverse; Miqmaq, Acadian, Scots
and Irish have all contributed to its history and character. The Miramichi area
was originally an important regional centre for fishing, logging, shipping and
ship-building. This legacy is reflected in the architecture of the region. Due
to its early prosperity, the Miramichi boasts a number of fine Victorian homes.
It also has the largest church in Canada east of Quebec City, the neo-Gothic
St.
Michael's Basilica. Today, Miramichi offers its guests a wide range of sights,
activities and events like the Rock
n Roll Festival and the White
Gold Festival. The waterfronts and wharves have been preserved and are popular
destinations. Sailing, salmon fishing and canoeing are among the many recreational
opportunities it offers.
