</head>
<body>
<div>
   THIS IS ONE PARAGRAPH. HERE WE ARE NOT USE ANY ALIGNMENT.
</div>
<div align="center" style="border: 2px solid blue">
   THIS PARAGRAPH IS IN CENTER
</div>
</body>
</html>

Example

<title>div in center with css</title>
   <link href="../../Content/style.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />

<body>
<div>

<div class="mydiv">

</div>
</body>
</html>
