Getting Around
City Layout and NavigationCalgary is divided into four quadrants, NE, NW, SE, SW.

Calgary is also home to a very culturally diverse population, with a very wide selection of international restaurants, especially from East and Southeast Asia, and the Mediterranean from Italy through Lebanon. Calgary is, however, generally lacking in decent Mexican food, and the inland location means that a good More...
