Nariaiji Temple

Nariaiji is a Shingon Buddhist temple located 350 meters above sea level on a mountain overlooking the Amanohashidate sandbar. The mountain was long revered as a sacred place and worshipped in the Shugendo tradition of mountain asceticism. Beginning in the Heian period (794–1185), Nariaiji was frequented by aristocrats and others making the 33 Kannon Temples in Western Japan pilgrimage route, and it is considered the original grounds for viewing Amanohashidate.

The temple was established in 704 under orders from Emperor Monmu (r. 697–707). Its principal image is a statue of the Kannon Bodhisattva, deity of compassion. According to legend, while training on the mountain a monk became trapped without food by deep snow. After praying to the Kannon statue he awoke to find a fallen deer, which sustained him and was considered a sacrifice from the statue itself.

Due to wars and natural disasters Nariaiji has been destroyed and reconstructed several times. Early versions of the temple can be seen in artwork, including the View of Amanohashidate painting by Sesshu Toyo (1420–1506), which shows the temple before it was destroyed by fire in 1507, and the Nariaiji Sankei Mandala from later in the sixteenth century. The main hall, with its elegantly curved and gabled roof, was reconstructed in its current location in the late eighteenth century. The temple includes an ancient cemetery, a bell tower, and a five-story pagoda that was built in the 1990s. Although Amanohashidate is no longer visible from the temple itself, the former temple grounds has an observation deck with commanding views of the sandbar.

成相寺

真言宗佛寺——成相寺，位於一座海拔350公尺的山上，從寺院可俯瞰天橋立沙洲。在厲行山地苦修的修驗道傳統裡，這座山長久以來一直被視為聖地而受到尊重與崇拜。平安時代（794-1185）初期，成相寺作為「西國三十三所巡禮」（日本西部的33座觀音寺）路線上的一站，貴族和其他巡禮信眾頻繁造訪。此外，成相寺還被認為是最早的天橋立觀景點。

西元704年，成相寺應文武天皇（697-707在位）之命修建完成。寺院主供一尊大慈大悲觀音菩薩像。傳說，曾經有一名僧人在山中修行時遭遇大雪受困沒有食物，他闔上雙眼向觀音像祈禱，睜開雙眼後看到身前躺倒了一頭野鹿，僧人便靠食鹿活了下來，而這頭野鹿就被認為是觀音像所化。

由於戰爭和自然災害，成相寺幾經損毀和重建。早年的寺院面貌可見於藝術作品中，如雪舟等楊（1420-1506）的《天橋立圖》和16世紀晚期的《成相寺參詣曼荼羅》，前者留下了寺院1507年毀於火災之前的模樣。寺院本堂（正殿）為人字形屋頂曲線優雅，於18世紀晚期在現址上建成。此外，寺院內還有一片古老的墓地、一座鐘樓和一座建於1990年代年代的五重寶塔。如今從成相寺的位置已看不到天橋立，但寺院舊址上建起了一個觀景台，可俯瞰沙洲景象。
