Kyoto Nison-in Temple in Autumn

Kyoto Nison-in Temple in Autumn

Tomoko Kamishima

Nison-in Temple in Arashiyama (northwest Kyoto) is a fantastic place to enjoy autumn leaves. The view from the top of the hill behind the temple is a secret spot, and especially nice. Most of the people stay at the long approach and at the main temple buildings to snap photos of the autumn leaves. But if you are a good walker, don’t stop there. Please walk up the steps through the cemetery area and climb up the hill. You’ll overlook a stunning view of the gorgeous colored mountains below.

京都 二尊院

Tomoko Kamishima

二尊院は、京都嵐山の紅葉の名所の一つであるが、裏山まで足を伸ばすひとは少ない。だが、小倉山の東麓に位置するこの裏山は、実にすばらしいビューポイントなのだ。本当は秘密にしておきたいが、健脚の方はぜひ行ってみていただきたい。本堂脇の石段をのぼり、いくつか墓地を通り過ぎたところに左に折れる山道がある。そこを進んでいくと、藤原定家の時雨亭跡(他に厭離庵や常寂光寺も候補地とされている)と言われる場所があって、そこで一気に視界が開ける。山々が美しく彩られる秋は、まさに絶景である。

Established long ago, in 834, Nison-in was destroyed during the Onin War (1467-1477) and then rebuilt. Many people flock here during the autumn months to enjoy the colorful maples. If you've got strong legs and like old cemeteries, then a hike up the hill is a must. The more you look around, the more you will find in its ancient burial grounds. I visited in late November, and although the place was packed due to the foliage, after climbing the long steep stairs behind and to the right of the temple buildings, I was quite alone. It was quiet and beautiful.

遠い昔、西暦834年に建立された二尊院は応仁の乱(1467-1477)で全焼し、その後再建された。秋には紅葉を楽しむ人々でにぎわいを見せるこの寺院、足に自信があり古い墓地が好きな人には、ぜひ坂登りをお薦めする。見れば見るほど、古色蒼然としたこの墓地の美を堪能できるからだ。私が訪れた11月下旬、寺は紅葉見物の客たちでごった返していた。しかし寺院裏手の長い急な階段を登り寺の右手に出ると、私以外誰もいない。そこは静かで、美しかった。

ในปี 834 นับว่านานมาแล้วที่วัดแห่งนี้ถูกสร้างขึ้น วัดนิซงอิน(Nison-in)ถูกทำลายในช่วงสงครามโอนิน(Onin war :1467-1477)และภายหลังได้ถูกสร้างขึ้นมาใหม่ ผู้คนต่างพากันหลั่งไหลมาที่นี่ในช่วงฤดูใบไม้ร่วง เพื่อจะชื่นชมและเพลิดเพลินไปกับความงดงามของใบเมเปิลสีสันสดใส ยิ่งถ้าคุณมีขาที่แข็งแรงและชื่นชอบพื้นที่สุสานเก่า การปีนขึ้นมาบนเนินเห่งนี้เป็นอะไรที่คุณไม่ควรพลาด ยิ่งคุณมองไปรอบๆมากเท่าไร คุณก็จะยิ่งพบกับความหลงไหลในพื้นที่สุสานโบราณแห่งนี้มากขึ้นเท่านั้น ผมได้มาเยี่ยมเยียนที่นี่ในช่วงปลายเดือนพฤศจิกายน และถึงแม้ว่าจะยังเป็นช่วงที่ใบไม้ร่วง แต่หลังจากที่ผมได้ปีนป่ายผ่านพ้นบันไดที่ลาดชัน และขึ้นมายังฝั่งขวาของพระวิหารวัด มีเพียงแค่ผมคนเดียวที่อยู่ตรงนั้น มันเป็นความเงียบสงบและงดงามจริงๆ

Kuil Nison-in di Arashiyama (barat laut Kyoto) merupakan tempat fantastik untuk menikmati daun musim gugur.  Pemandangan dari atas bukit belakang kuil merupakan tempat rahasia, dan terutama sangat indah.  Kebanyakan orang akan tinggal di bangunan dengan jalan panjang dan kuil utama untuk mengambil foto daun musim gugur.  Akan tetapi apabila Anda pejalan kaki yang baik, jangan berhenti di sana.  Tolong berjalan melewati tangga menuju ke atas melewati area pemakaman hingga ke atas bukit.  Anda akan melihat pemandangan inah gunung penuh warna dibawahnya.W

Đền Kyoto Nison-in vào mùa thu

Minh Ánh

Ngôi đền Nison-in ở quận Arashiyama ( nằm ở phía tây bắc tỉnh Kyoto) là một nơi tuyệt vời để thưởng thức quanh cảnh lá vào mùa thu. Tầm nhìn từ đỉnh đồi phía sau ngôi đền là một chốn huyền bí, và đặc biệt xinh đẹp mê hồn. Hầu hết mọi người thường nán lại con đường dài dẫn vào đền và tại các tòa nhà chính của ngôi đền để chụp ảnh những chiếc lá mùa thu. Nhưng nếu bạn là một người đi bộ tô, đừng chỉ dừng lại ở đó. Hãy đi bộ qua các khu vực nghĩa trang và leo lên đỉnh đồi. Bạn sẽ bắt trọn khung cảnh tuyệt đẹp đến nín thở của những ngọn núi bên dưới với sắc màu rực rỡ.

니손인은 교토 아라시야마의 단풍명소 중 하나지만 뒷산까지 발길을 돌리는 사람은 적다. 하지만 오쿠라야마의 동쪽 기슭에 위치한 이 뒷산은 참으로 훌륭한 뷰포인트다. 사실은 비밀로 해 두고 싶지만, 다리가 건강 하신분은 꼭 가 봐 주었으면 한다. 본당 옆 돌계단을 올라 여러 묘역을 지나가다 왼쪽으로 꺾이는 산길이 있다. 그곳을 나아가면, 후지와라 사다이에의 시구레테이 터(다른 곳에 엔리안이나 죠작코지도 후보지로 있다)라고 불리우는 곳이 있는데, 거기서 단숨에 시야가 확 트인다. 산들이 아름답게 물드는 가을은 그야말로 절경이다.

먼 옛날 서기 834년 건립된 니손인(二尊院)은 온닌의 난(1467-1477)에 전부 타버린 후 중건되었다. 가을에는 단풍을 즐기는 사람들로 붐비는 이 절, 발과 다리에 자신 있고 오래된 묘역을 좋아하는 사람에게는 꼭 언덕 오르기를 권한다. 볼수록 고색창연한 이 묘지의 아름다움을 맛볼 수 있기 때문이다. 내가 찾은 11월 하순, 절은 단풍 구경꾼들로 붐볐다. 하지만 사찰 뒤편 기나긴 가파른 계단을 올라 사찰 오른편으로 나서면 나 말고는 아무도 없다. 이곳은 조용하고 아름다웠다.

Kohaku-do is a casual French restaurant in Kyoto, Arashiyama. It is situated just a few minutes from Tenryu-ji Temple. And other train stations such as JR Saga-Arashiyama, Arashiyama Station on the Keifuku Dentetsu Line and Hankyu Line are all within a few minutes walk. The price range for the lunch sets is 2000-3000 yen, including hors d’oeuvre, soup, bread, a main dish, desert and a drink-bar. We ordered grilled whitefish and a hamburg steak. Both of the main dishes were quite good!

Arashiyama Bamboo Grove

Arashiyama Bamboo Grove

The Arashiyama Bamboo Forest is one of the most popular attractions in Kyoto and is made up of numerous trails for visitors to enjoy. For the best photos, make sure to get here early in the morning as it gets crowded very quickly. It's not just the beauty of the bamboo that attracts people. The Arashiyama bamboo forest is one of the 100 most beautiful soundscapes in Japan, which are designated by the Japanese Ministry of the Environment. The sound of the rustling bamboo swaying in the wind is almost meditative. If you walk along the main street of Arashiyama, you will also pass Tenryuji Temple, one of the most beautiful Zen temples in Kyoto. According to Japanese tradition, bamboo is a symbol of strength. Therefore, it often happens that a Buddhist temple or Shinto shrine has a small bamboo grove on its premises to ward off evil.
