Using an HTML Action Link to target a div

Question

I am new to ASP/MVC and I am having trouble figuring out how to link a div to a page in HTML markup. This is the current link in pure HTML. I want to accomplish this, but in razor syntax

<div class="col-md-2">
    <a href="ambulance.html">
        <div class="amb item">
            <div class="tiletext">AMB</div>
            <div class="tilesubtext">Ambulance</div>
        </div>
    </a>
</div>

I've been looking into action links, but if there is a better way to accomplish this, I'm open to it!

Possible duplicate. I'll add a bit of explanation that pertains to the question since it has to do with Razor:

What your backend developer needs is Url.Action helper. This will let you route the link through the MVC framework.

So say:

<div class="col-md-2">
    <a href="@Url.Action("Cars", "Ambulance")">
        <div class="amb item">
            <div class="tiletext">AMB</div>
            <div class="tilesubtext">Ambulance</div>
        </div>
    </a>
</div>
