As a boy, Ioeh Ming Pei and his grandfather explored the gardens of Suzhou, where rock farmers placed giant boulders in streams for them to take shape over hundreds of years. He imagined building something that lasted as long. At age ten, Ioeh Ming and his family moved to Shanghai, where he was awestruck by the enormous buildings being constructed all around. He realized exactly what he wanted to be when he grew up—an architect who designed skyscrapers that touched the clouds!
