Chionji Temple

Chionji Temple is located at the southern entrance to the Amanohashidate sandbar and is dedicated to Monju, the bodhisattva of wisdom. Legend says that Monju was summoned to the area by the primordial Shinto deity Ame no Oshihomimi to quell a mischievous dragon. The temple is believed to have been established in the early ninth century. Although exact construction dates for the main hall are unknown, some building materials have been dated to the Kamakura period (1185–1333). The temple’s principal object of worship is a statue of Monju riding atop a lion (shishi) and its style suggests it is also from the Kamakura period.

Amanohashidate was, for many years, the private property of Chionji until it was claimed as a National Forest in 1871. The temple was a customary stop for travelers visiting Amanohashidate or making a pilgrimage to Nariaiji Temple. Historically, travelers would have been ferried to the sandbar via boats launched from temple property.

The temple’s two-storied pagoda is the oldest wooden structure in the city of Miyazu, and was designated an Important Cultural Property of Japan in 1904. It was constructed in 1501 and its presence in View of Amanohashidate by Sesshu Toyo (1420–1506) enabled art historians to date the famous painting. The pagoda has an unusual kamehara (round white plaster covering on the lower roof) and enshrines a statue of Dainichi Buddha.

Chionji is also affiliated with wisdom mochi (chie no mochi), a popular adzuki bean and rice sweet that is sold at four tea shops just outside the temple gates.

智恩寺

智恩寺位於天橋立沙洲的南入口處，供奉著執掌智慧的文殊菩薩。在傳說中，文殊菩薩曾應本土神道教神明「天忍穗耳命」的籲求，前來鎮壓一條惡龍。

據推測，這座寺院可能建於9世紀早期。儘管本堂（正殿）的確切建造時間無法確定，但其中一些建築材料卻可以追溯至鐮倉時代（1185-1333）。寺院的主供佛（菩薩）是一尊騎在獅子上的文殊菩薩像，根據造像風格推斷有可能同樣出自鐮倉時代。

在1871年天橋立被宣佈為國有林之前，這片沙洲在很長一段時間裡都是智恩寺的私產。依照慣例，遊覽天橋立或前往成相寺巡禮的訪客都會在智恩寺停留。過去，人們需要在寺院搭乘渡船才能前往沙洲。

寺院的雙層多寶塔是宮津市最古老的木結構建築，在1904年被指定為國家重要文化財產。佛塔建於1501年，雪舟等楊（1420-1506）的《天橋立圖》中留下了它的身影，這也是藝術史家得以確認這幅名畫創作年代的一大依據。佛塔有一個獨特的「龜腹」（下層屋頂上白色灰泥的圓形遮蓋物），塔內供奉著一尊大日如來像。

智恩寺與「智慧之餅」（智慧的麻糬）有關，這是一種很受歡迎的甜品，用紅豆和稻米製成，寺門外的4家茶室均有出售。
