Sonsho-in : This is where you come out after the hiking from Seiryu-den of Shogunzuka. It's located in the west of Mt. Awata and south of Awata Shrine. The object of warship in this temple is an old-time priest Gansan Taishi ( Ryogen ) known to be the icon to represent the deity which offers protection from troubles in the form of Tsuno Daishi ( a god with horns on his head ). The temple belongs to Shoren-in. From this point it takes about 30 minutes to Seiryu-den. ...

静かな雰囲気と華麗な建物の、東山界隈で別世界のような古刹さんです。粟田神社さんからの階段は閉鎖されており、場所がわかりにくいのが、知名度が低い原因かとお察しいたします。青礼院門跡の北側に脇道もあるようですが、私は、粟田神社さんの階段下まで下り、地下鉄東山駅方向に100メートルほど進むと、「元三大師」の石柱がありますので、そこから南に住宅地の坂道を登りました。坂道の突き当たりにホテルオークラさんの別館がありますので、そこを左折し、さらに住宅地の中の坂道や階段を登ると尊勝院さんです。ちなみに、尊勝院さんの奥の木橋から奥に山道がさらにあり、京都一周トレイルという登山道になっていますが、将軍塚や東山山頂まで...

御本尊は元三大師（角大師） 京洛三庚申のひとつで粟田口庚申堂でもあります（他の二つは八坂庚申堂＝金剛寺、山ノ内庚申＝猿田彦神社）。もとは青蓮院末の金蔵寺に祀られていた青面金剛と三猿が1868年に遷祀されたものです。青面金剛像は本堂に向かって最も左側の厨子に収められており、その前の三猿（「思わざる」を加えて四猿とも）を拝することができます。 ちなみに、四天王寺庚申堂では四頭目の猿は「せざる」とされています。 この日、ご住職がいらして、御朱印や御影など丁寧に対応くださました。お参りしている間に、東山トレイルの道を辿った数人の方が境内を抜けて粟田口へと降りてゆきました。

途中にある石の道標には「元三大師」や「庚申堂」とある。山の中腹に位置し粟田神社のやや坂上（神社より直接行く道は閉鎖されているので、一旦坂を下り、青蓮院側へ一つ隣の坂を上る）。本堂内部は撮影不可。内陣と外陣は木枠で仕切られていて、内陣は暗く肉眼では諸仏像は拝観しづらい。それでも千手観世音菩薩像は非常に美しく、庚申尊の諸像も拝観できる（単眼鏡を使用しても晴天時の反射光でかろうじて見られる程度）。毎月3日の11時より行われる護摩供養の案内があった。
