The [[Western Yamuna Canal]] of the river [[Yamuna]] flows on one side of the city. This canal serves the irrigation needs of the farmers. The canal has century old path ways, known locally as ''pattris'', on both sides which serve as connecting routes between villages even today and also help the irrigation department to maintain the canal and serve as a perfect scenic walk—with water on one side and green lush farms on other. The river marks the boundary of the district with the state of [[Uttar Pradesh]], which borders the city on the eastern side of river Yamuna. The neighbouring city is [[Saharanpur]] in the state of Uttar Pradesh. In the north, the district borders the state of [[Himachal Pradesh]], [[Sirmaur district|Sirmaur]] being the district and the towns of [[Nahan]] and [[Paonta Sahib]] being the towns nearby. Tajewala headworks—from where the Yamuna canal is diverted—also lies north of the city. [[Jagadhri]] is an adjoining town famous for its industrial brass sheet and stainless steel industry. | The [[Western Yamuna Canal]] of the river [[Yamuna]] flows on one side of the city.
