How to choose shopping places in Edmonton, Canada

Alberta's sales tax is really low, only 5%, so shopping there is a great idea. Edmonton is the second most populous provincial capital city in Canada (after Toronto). It's the cultural, governmental, and educational center of Alberta, with light rail transportation and many festivals throughout the year, mostly in the summer. It also has the largest indoor shopping center in North America - the West Edmonton Mall, and the largest historical park in Canada - Fort Edmonton Park.
