The two leaders will meet Wednesday at Filoli, a secluded estate along Northern California’s coastal range.
It was built in 1917 as a private residence and later became a National Trust for Historic Preservation site.
The estate is about 25 miles (40 kilometers) south of San Francisco, where leaders are gathering for the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation leaders’ conference this week.
“It appears to be a quiet, secluded estate, where Biden and Xi can have an intimate conversation in a relaxed environment,” Glaser said.
The gardens feature in Jennifer Lopez’s film “The Wedding Planner.”——AP writers Didi Tang and Colleen Long in San Francisco, and Zeke Miller and Matthew Lee in Washington contributed to this report.
