I know the Fountain of Nations has experienced added features and has gotten new guardrails but could it be the least changed attraction in Future World? The person debating me is saying the land is also the same but the Fountain has been flowing since 1982 and performing since the last year of Communicore. I would also say Horizons since it has never been touched but its probably in a landfill somewhere now.

I believe there was a new musical sequence added in the early 90s, featuring John Tesh, Yanni among others, which probably introduced an altered fountain sequence. The Land has actually changed quite a bit from its original state, if you mean changed as in attractions/shows. Kitchen Kabaret became Food Rocks, which was closed down to allow for a pathway to Soarin', Living with the Land has gone through numerous changes - from being narrated live by a CM to audio recording, and the Circle of Life replaced Symbiosis that used to show in the theatre. I would say FoN is the least changed, because the rest of the pavilions/shows have had some kind of major overhaul at some point in time.

The Fountain has seen it all. Like Joruney Into Your Imagination and Horizons, that Fountain was one of my best Epcot childhood memories and I am so thank full that it is still there without any changes. Its refreshing to see some shows that payed in the 90's. Its looks a little sloppy now but so does the Bellagio Fountain. I am very happy they put some money into restoring it. I appreshiate it even more since it brings back great memories. I highly recommend you all visit the Wet Design website, its not only inspiring but looking at that site has led me to look out for some very amazing fountains along my travels that I wouldn't have known about and wish I did. http://www.wetdesign.com/
