shopping @ Calgary

skybird

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.
: S% y5 f: {) A! z1 R
Are there any of places (malls, clothing stores...) around the downtown recommended to go? Or convenient to go by public transit?

( J5 E$ w( |! E0 P' G: GThanks!

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
+ f5 ^  n' ~2 u, S6 U. rsunridge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
