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?
