霞関山 本覚院 太宗寺(たいそうじ)は、東京メトロ・新宿御苑前駅の北西100mほどの新宿区新宿に伽藍を構える浄土宗の寺院です。

慶長元年(1596年)僧・太宗が開いた草庵、「太宗庵」が前身でです。 寛永6年(1629年)安房国勝山藩主・内藤正勝の葬儀を行ったことを契機に内藤氏との縁が深まり、寛文8年(1668年)に正勝の長男・重頼から寺地の寄進を受け、太宗を開山として太宗寺が創建されました。院号は正勝の法名を拝しています。 元禄4年(1691年)内藤氏は信濃国高遠藩へ移封されたが、太宗寺はその後も高遠藩内藤氏の菩提寺として、歴代藩主や一族の墓地が置かれました。 内藤氏の墓地は約300坪の広大なものでしたが、昭和27年(1952年)から行われた区画整理で縮小されました。5代目当主正勝など3基の墓石が現存します。

かつては境内北側に水が湧いており、蟹川につながる池がありましたが、昭和25年(1950年)境内北側は都市計画公園として新宿区に移管され、「新宿区立...

One of the many beautiful and amazing things about Tokyo and Japan, you can always find peaceful and if you like, spiritual places to escape/relax. Taiso-ji Temple, is one favourite places in Shinjuku! It’s only moments away from Shinjuku station, with convenience stores just around the corner. I always offer Ennma some sake and clean up around his shrine. So, be cultural or spiritual, whatever?! If you are in that area, check it out and pass on best wishes to...

I needed this place. Some peace and serenity after the lights and noise of the other streets. Apparently there are cats here but didn’t see any. I took some time to just soak up the temple, the large Buddha and do some reading on the Taiso-ji. The cemetery nearby is quite unique and worth walking quietly and respectfully through. Wheelchair accessible. Kid friendly. No...

Interesting temple where you can see: 1. The one of six (the seventh was destroyed) statues from the Edo period. This being the smallest of the seven. See pictures for more details on the statue and story. 2. A temple dedicated to the gods of hell. 3. Goshuins are hand drawn into your book and are 300 yen.

We came for the cats but no cats were here 😾 I don’t know what happened to them or if March is off season for stray cats. Besides the cats this is a pretty small temple. May be worth a visit if you are really interested in temples and not in cats 🙂
