AI overview

I don't have sufficient context to write an accurate overview of Ambala. The provided image caption only mentions a landmark (Kos Minar) near Ambala along the Grand Trunk Road in Haryana, but doesn't explain what Ambala is or why it matters. I cannot invent additional facts beyond what's given.

Travel guide

Understand

Ambala is essentially a twin city consisting of Ambala Cantonment and Ambala City, 3 km apart, which between them are home to around half a million people. Established in 1843, it is one of the oldest cantonments in India and one of the oldest district of India: the first commissioner took charge in 1855. It is famous for its food, wholesale and cloth markets.

Get around

In Ambala local transport depends upon in which part of city you are. Both government and private buses run on all of the major roads, and both auto and cycle rickshaws are also easy to find.
