架构师提供的文本描述。这是日本Kochi山区一个人口稀少的村庄自建的临时神社。在过去的200多年里，这个村庄有9座房屋组成了卡纳明·辛托社区，在森林的上部建立了一座神殿。然而，该村人口开始减少，仅造成一栋房屋和一座被忽视的神殿，2015年，这座圣地因台风而严重受损。2016年，朝拜建筑面临危机并倒塌，于是居民们和附近的高知科技大学一起，决定在房屋区建造一座临时神殿。

Text description provided by the architects. This is the self-built temporary Shinto shrine in a depopulated village in the mountainous area of kochi in Japan. For over 200 years the village used to have nine houses making up the kanamine shinto community, with a shrine set up in the upper part of the forest. However, the village started to lose its population, resulting in only one house and a neglected shrine that in 2015 was deeply injured by a heavy typhoon. In 2016 the worship structure faced a crisis and collapsed, so the inhabitants, together with the Kochi University of Technology located nearby, decided to construct a temporary shrine in the houses area.

因为这个社区只有一个人居住，所以建造的费用是非常有限的。此外，通往工地的道路非常狭窄，迫使小组将建筑材料运送一公里。这导致这座临时神殿是自建的，用钱少，材料有限。该小组由十名学生和建筑师组成，在五天内，他们用钢管建造了这个礼拜场所，用于脚手架、木材和木板。

Because the community was only inhabited by one person, the expenses of the construction were extremely limited. Furthermore, the road to the site was really narrow, obliging the team to carry the construction materials for one kilometer. This led the temporary shrine to be self-built, with little money and with limited materials. The team consisted of ten students plus architect and in five days they erected the worship space with steel pipes for the scaffolding, wooden lumbers, and wooden boards.

神社的三角形不仅象征着圣山，也象征着通向圣山的隧道。2016年秋季，Kochi科技大学的居民和成员将举办神道节。新的建设旨在成为由社区居民和大学成员组成的社区的核心。

The triangular shape of the shrine symbolizes not only the sacred mountain but also the tunnel that leads to it. In the fall of 2016 a Shinto festival will be held by the inhabitants and members of Kochi University of Technology. The new construction aims to become the core of the community consisted of both inhabitants of the community and members of the university.
