A cooling water circulating structure for engines is formed by providing therein a thermostat housing 10 which holds therein a thermostat 9 which opens and closes a passage R for a radiator 5 in accordance with a cooling water temperature, and the thermostat housing further has three flanges F1, F2, F3, i.e. a first flange F1 to be joined to an engine body, a second flange F2 to which an oil filter is fixed, and a third flange F3 to which an oil cooler 7 is fixed. The three flanges F1, F2, F3 are arranged so that the surfaces thereof are on mutually different planes, whereby it is rendered possible to reduce the number of passages and pipes for the cooling water and miniaturize an engine.
