Harishchondro dighi (হরিশ চন্দ্র দিঘী) was made/built by the legendary king Harishchondro for the inhabitants of Rampal Village. It is believed that the water level of this pond remained low along the year but it gets high dramatically during the full moon especially once in a year in the Winter Season. A fair is held here around the place annually. For the local Hindu people, this pond was a sacred place. Hindu's made some rituals near this pond to set marriage of their unmarried daughters. Now this lake is used by the common people.

ইতিহাসবিদরা দাবি করেন যে রাজা গোপাল পালের শাসনকালে জয়সাগর দীঘি খনন করা হয়। এই দীঘিতে অনেক মৎস্য খামার গড়ে উঠেছে। গ্রামীণ ব্যাংককে এই দিঘীটি ২৫ বছরের জন্য লীজ দেওয়া হয়েছে যেটি প্রায় শেষ হবার পথে। অন্যান্য দীঘিগুলোর মধ্যে আছে উদয়দীঘি, শালিয়াদীঘি, দেওয়ান পীরের মাজার ইত্যাদি। এই দীঘির পাশেই আরও কয়েকটি দীঘি আছে। এছাড়াও পর্যটকদের জন্যে প্রয়োজনীয় স্থাপনা তৈরির জন্য পর্যাপ্ত জায়গাও আছে এখানে। বলা হয়ে থাকে রাজাদের শাসনকালে এই দিঘীটি গরু ছাগলকে পানি খাওয়ানোর জন্যে খনন করা হয়েছিল।
