There is a picnic spot located at the village near Ronojitpur (রণজিতপুর). It is based on a house named Chondro Mohol. It was probably built by someone named Saiyad Amanul Huda Selim, who was a naval officer. Chondra (চন্দ্রা) is the name of his wife and the name of the house is given after her. Lot of local visitors use to come here every day. It was free once upon a time, but now a days they have put an entry fee to enter. Its 20 Taka these days. Apart from the house, the area is nicely decorated with flowers. Also it has symbolic sculptures to depict the lost culture of our Bangladesh. It has a mini zoo at one corner, and has several ponds around.
The house Chondro Mohol (চন্দ্র মহল) is surrounded by water and to reach there you have to go through an underpass that goes under the water. Inside the house, they have placed few stuffs which probably are the collected things from several part of the world (as a hobby, or during their traveling).

চন্দ্রমহল নামে একটি ভবনকে কেন্দ্র করে রঞ্জিতপুরের কাছে একটি পিকনিক স্পট রয়েছে। সম্ভবত সৈয়দ আমানুল হুদা সেলিম নামক এক ব্যাক্তি এই ভবনটি নির্মাণ করেন এবং তাঁর স্ত্রী চন্দ্রের নামে ভবনটির নামকরণ করেন। তিনি ছিলেন নৌ বাহিনীর একজন কর্মকর্তা। প্রতিদিন অসংখ্য স্থানীয় পর্যটক এখানে আসেন। পূর্বে এখানে ঢুকতে কোন প্রবেশ মূল্য না দিতে হলেও বর্তমানে ২০/- টাকা প্রবেশ মূল্য দিয়ে প্রবেশ করতে হয়। চন্দ্র মহল ছাড়াও পুরো এলাকাটি ফুল দিয়ে চমৎকারভাবে সাজানো হয়েছে। এদেশের হারিয়ে যাওয়া সংস্কৃতিকে এখানে ভাস্কর্যের মাধ্যমে তুলে ধরা হয়েছে। একটি মিনি চিড়িয়াখানা ছাড়াও এখানে বেশ কয়েকটি পুকুরও আছে।
পানি উপর স্থাপিত চন্দ্রমহলে আপনাকে পানির নীচে নির্মিত একটি আন্ডারপাস দিয়ে আসতে হবে। ভবনটির অভ্যন্তরে পৃথিবীর বিভিন্ন অংশে বেড়ানোর সময় সেখান থেকে শখের বশে সংগ্রহ করা বিভিন্ন জিনিসপত্র প্রদর্শিত হচ্ছে।

Mymensingh city is one of the old cities in Bangladesh. Historically & archaeologically it is very important from tourism point of views. Once a traveler wants to travel in this district, he/she will find several places to visit. Muktagacha Zamindar House (মুক্তাগাছা জমিদার বাড়ী) is one of those.
This old palace is located at the heart of the Muktagacha(মুক্তাগাছা) Upazila, 16km west to the Sadar Upazila. Previously the name of Muktagacha was Binodbari (বিনোদবাড়ী). It is believed that the Zamindars actually came from the Natore (নাটোর) or Bogra (বগুড়া) of our North Bengal. When the first ruler named Srikrishna Acharya (শ্রীকৃষ্ণ আচার্য) arrived here, a local inhabitant named Muktaram Kormokar (মুক্তারাম কর্মকার) welcomed them with a large lamp stand that was made from brass. In that portion of our country, people call a lamp stand as Gachha (গাছা)). This gratitude pleased the Zamindar and they have renamed the area as Muktagacha (মুক্তা গাছা) using that inhabitant's name and the lamp stand's local name.
Srikrishna Acharya (শ্রীকৃষ্ণ আচার্য) established the Zamindari at Muktagacha formerly known as Binodbari. Later, his four sons Ram Ram, Hore Ram (হরে রাম), Bishnu (বিষ্ণু), Shibram (শিবরাম)and their inheritor conducted the Zamindari. The Owner of the Muktagacha Rajabari was Jogot Kishor Acarya (জগত কিশোর আচার্য), the son of Hore Ram Acharya (হরে রাম আচার্য). His ancestors started to build that Palace in the year 1750-60 which signifies that the structure is almost 300 yrs old.
However, this old house from Muktagacha covers a vast area, though most of the structures are in very poor condition. Few things were stolen by the locals, and others are just dilapidated for not taking any care. We observed two storied iron & steel made house (though floors are all gone, only structure is standing there).
Most of the rulers from this family were cruel and hostile to the peasants. They have lot of allegations against them including raping, torturing, etc. It was considered as a crime whenever a peasant from that area use to cross the Zamindar House using any shoe or umbrella. Guards use to beat them whenever someone committed such crime.
