It has just a few Japanese details (like insriptions and some of the buddha statues) added to it. The Shanti (shanti meaning peace in sanskrit) Stupas were started by a Japanese Dharma Master by name Guruji who spent much time in India since 50's and they are built in order to advance world peace and prosperity. Most of the Shanti stupas follow the style of the stupas built in India at the time of King Ashoka or some later styles like that during the reign of Pala dynasty. In Japan most common form of a stupa is wooden pagoda, or a combination of pagoda and stupa which appears like a roofed stupa, there are also smaller stupas built up with the shapes representing five elements (space, air, water, fire and earth).
