SAN FRANCISCO (AP) — U.S. President Joe Biden and Chinese President Xi Jinping will hold their long anticipated meeting at Filoli, a historic country house and museum with lavish gardens just south of San Francisco. Experts say this is an ideal location for the two world leaders to meet for a delicate one-on-one conversation aimed at improving relations. The two leaders are in San Francisco for the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation leaders’ conference. The estate includes a Georgian revival-style mansion and a formal English Renaissance-style garden. The estate is open to the public daily, but the website says it is closed this week for holiday decorating.
