福島縣會津地方的傳統吉祥物
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

「赤牛」是福島縣會津地區的代表民間工藝品，通常被稱為「避厄牛」或「幸運牛」，它是驅魔辟邪和避疫的吉祥物，深受會津人民的喜愛。
當輕輕觸碰「赤牛」的脖子時，它的頭部會可愛地搖晃，而圓潤的造型也讓它在海外非常受歡迎。

• 什麼是赤牛？
很久以前，會津地區發生了大地震，會津柳津圓藏寺的虛空藏堂倒塌。後來寺廟在懸崖上重建，並且牛被用來運送木材。由於路途險峻，許多牛倒下，但據說有一頭紅色的牛堅持工作到最後。這頭牛被稱為「赤牛」，並深受人們喜愛。
為了紀念這個傳說，人們開始製作赤牛民間玩具，並寄託著「願有堅韌的毅力與健康的體魄」的祝福。紅色被認為是能驅除瘟疫的顏色，而它身上的圓形花紋則象徵著瘟疫痊癒後的疤痕。

A traditional folk craft cherished as a good luck charm
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

"Akabeko" is a traditional folk craft from the Aizu region of Fukushima Prefecture, known as the "bull of good fortune" or "protective bull." It has been beloved by the people of Aizu as a charm against evil and to ward off plagues.
When you gently touch its neck, the head of the Akabeko wobbles adorably, and its rounded, endearing shape has made it a popular item, even overseas.

• What is Akabeko?
A long time ago, a great earthquake struck the Aizu region, causing the collapse of the Kokuuzodo Hall at Enzoji Temple. Afterward, the temple was rebuilt on a cliff, and bulls were used to transport timber. Many of the bulls fell due to the rugged terrain, but one red-colored bull continued to work tirelessly to the end. This bull became known as "Akabeko" and was embraced by the people.
In honor of this legend, Akabeko folk toys were created with the wish for "endurance and robust health." Red is considered a color that wards off evil spirits, and the round patterns on the body symbolize scars from a plague that was overcome.
