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.
, ~5 R) L9 s: R) G
Are 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
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

downtown是有个td squre，不过据说现在在专修，很多店不开，你自己查一下
1 y* x- a5 I+ O4 e8avenue上也有挺多店的，HR啦，morale啦都在那条路上

莫迭儿
