Borobudur indeed is a decent piece of building with fascinating architectural structure.
The architectural style is consist of Stupa and Candi.
There is a main dome at the center of the monument which consist of 72 buddha statues seated in the perforated platform. The monument had total of six square platforms, and is decorated with alot of stupas and candi which arrange in a systematic way.
It is place in such way that the people that time respect what they believe it is as it is. This monument had detail ornaments on it with an eccentric skills that somehow still stays mystery today. Yet the complicated ornament somehow gradually turned into a more simple structure as in arupadhatu circula terraces.
The constructed details, some shows the daily life of people in the 8th century of ancient java.
Ont the five square platforms, there seated more of the buddha cross-legged in a lotus position. At a glance all of them seems to be similar, but watch closely, there are subtle differences in between them. There are a small difference in mudras or the position of their hands. All the reliefs arrangement and the way they were carved that way tells a story that's different from one another.
