shopping @ Calgary

I am going to Calgary for the US-VISA interview this Thursday and will stick around for 4-5 hours. I don't have a vehicle so I need to walk around or take buses.

; k7 F  h* L: B1 h+ o1 }" Y- j: iAre there any of places (malls, clothing stores...) around the downtown recommended to go? Or convenient to go by public transit?

chinook还可以，坐c-train（lrt）到chinook那站再走个5分钟的样子，除了crossiron最大的mall就是chinook了
3 P/ s) Q6 Z7 B5 h2 o9 R% esunridge也可以，坐个lrt下来就是
本人更喜欢chinook，店更多，人气更旺，sunridge那边基本是印巴友人的地盘
