Using Html.ActionLink to call action on different controller

In this Asp .Net MVC tutorial we will learn how to call the action method which is present in the different Controller in ASP.NET MVC using Html.ActionLink
How we can use Html.ActionLink:

@Html.ActionLink("Text To Display","ActionName","ControllerName","OptionalRouteValues","Optional_HTML_Attributes")

When we want to call Action Method where View and Action method are inside same Controller.

@Html.ActionLink("Contact Us", "EnquiryForm")

This will generates following output:
