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.

sunridge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

By the way, c-train is free within the downtown area!

Take the c-train and get off 8 ave, 5 st. SE. (start from #10 Eatons  in the map shop along the 8 Ave(Stephen Ave)

A lot of shopping malls, including Bankers hall, see map
