    Time: June 7 - 8, 2013

    Location: Annenberg Retreat, California, the United States

    Memories: President Obama presented President Xi with a gift of a bench made out of California redwood before the second meeting when they walked together for relaxation on the morning of June 8, 2013 at the Annenberg Retreat at Sunnylands estate in California. The redwood is a precious wood in California. In 1972, former U.S. President Richard Nixon visited China and brought several saplings of California redwood to the Chinese people as a gift. From then on, the redwood tree has been introduced and planted into several provinces and cities in China as a symbol of Sino-U.S. friendship.
