The completed Wonders of China film was approximately 19 minutes long, and it featured parts of China that had never been seen by most Westerners. The film opened with the rest of World Showcase on October 1, 1982. The film remained unchanged until 2002. By 2002, China had become both an industrial country and a popular tourist attraction. With these changes, Wonders of China began to seem dated. Imagineers eventually decided that they needed to update the film, and on March 25, 2002 the Wonders of China was shown for the final time <ref name= "book"/>.
On May 23, 2003 an updated version of Wonders of China made its debut in the China pavilion <ref name= "Jack"/>. The new film, known as Reflections of China, now featured Hong Kong, Shanghai, and Macau. Other scenes, including the Great Wall, Tienanmen Square, Beijing, Harbin, and Urumqi were all updated for the 21st century <ref name= "Jack"/>. For the refurbishment, all of the narration was re-dubbed, and anew score was composed by Richard Bellis <ref name= "book"/>. Since 2003, Reflections of China has not changedexperienced any changes.
