The area

Neighbourhood: Shinjuku
Shinjuku is the commuting capital of Tokyo, and contains the busiest train station in the world. To the west, there's an office district with the Tokyo Metropolitan Government Office at its center. To the east, there’s a district with long-established department stores, cinemas and theaters. Shinjuku Gyoen is a park originally built as the garden for the Imperial Household. It is quite famous as a venue for cherry-blossom viewing in March and April. In Shinjuku, many restaurants operate all night, and districts such as Omoide Yokocho (Memory Lane) or Shinjuku Golden Machi have back streets filled with tiny restaurants and bars that reflect each owner’s unique taste and style.

Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

大龍寺の隣に日蓮宗のお寺の常泉寺があります。
本堂は今風ですが、瓦屋根など落ち着いた感じがします。
入り口には「えんぴつくよう」の案内があります。

「常泉寺」をご存じでしょうか?早稲田から若松河田に向かう夏目坂通り沿いに日蓮宗の寺院がありました。
門前の石柱には南妙法蓮華経・常泉寺と刻まれていました。山門くぐると正面に数段の石段を上ると宝形造りの本堂です。
そして本堂前には無縁塔・水子観音像が祀られていて、鉛筆供養・鉛筆が短かくなったら一生懸命働いてくれたありがとうと言い忘れないよう供養言葉が子供たちにも分かるようひらがなで書かれているのが印象的でした。とても心がなごみますね。

若松町交差点から早稲田に向かって夏目坂通りを進むと右手にあるお寺です。
夏目坂の周辺にはお寺がたくさんありますが、常泉寺は、その中でも小ぢんまりとしておりシンプルです。しかし創建は17世紀と古く、近年立て直されたものと思われます。

 地下鉄・若松河田駅の北東方向の新宿区原町2丁目にある日蓮宗の寺院で、夏目坂通り沿いにあるので駅から歩いて6分位のところです。
 通り沿いに山門などがあり、直ぐ奥に近代的だがお寺らしい造りの本堂が見えます。
 山門を入ると右手の樹木の隣りに「無縁塔 水子観音像」などが祀られている小ぢんまりした静かな境内です。

早稲田駅からほど近い場所にあるお寺で、建物は小さくとてもシンプルか形をしていました。敷地とのバランスが良いのか、他の都会の狭小地に建つお寺に見られるような圧迫感もなく目に心地よかったです。

この付近はお寺、神社が何故か多いです。こちらはスローガンてきな標語が張り出され、地元密着なお寺の様に見えました。至って普通です。

夏目坂通りに面してありますのですぐ分かると思います。
境内は狭く山門からすぐ本堂です。
境内に花が植えられていないのでちょっと寂しい感じです。

わりと最近に建てかえられているのか石灯籠も含めて全体的にすごくきれいなのは良いのですが、だからといって近代的に建築されているわけでもなく、特にこれといった特徴もないため、ごくごく普通の小さなお寺といった印象です。

日蓮宗の寺院で、妙経山と号します。夏目坂通りから枝分かれした道路沿いにあります。分りづらいので、良く見て進みましょう。
