Bijoy Singh Dighi is a vast old tank on the western edge of Feni town, close to the Mohipal highway junction. Local tradition credits its digging to Raja Bijoy Singh several centuries ago, and with its broad banks it covers dozens of acres, making it one of the largest dighis in greater Noakhali.

Tall trees shade the banks, and a walk around the water is popular with townspeople in the evenings. The calm surface reflects the sky beautifully at sunrise and sunset. It makes a relaxing short stop for anyone passing through Feni on the Dhaka-Chattogram highway.
