The mystery about the existence of ancient lakes came when a Dutch artist proposed a theory that formerly the plains of a building where Borobudur stands is a lake, when viewed from above borobudur symbolizes a lotus flower, the usual lotus that grows on the water and the posture of Buddha at the top Borobudur symbolizes the lotus sutra that many encountered in Buddhist manuscripts and this theory creates quite a complicated controversy.
