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.

Are there any of places (malls, clothing stores...) around the downtown recommended to go? Or convenient to go by public transit?

Thanks!

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
sunridge也可以，坐个lrt下来就是
