Dear Friends,
which would be the correct way to ask for the following sentence:
M. Thatcher is visiting her former residence at 10 Downing Street
option 1: Where is she visiting?
option 2: What place is she visiting?
Thanks a lot!

I �d say "Where is she visiting?" but the other option isn �t wrong. The first just sounds more natural to me. |

I agree that the first sounds smoother, but it might not be a specific enough question. A person might answer "London" or even "England". Because of that, we sometimes have to ask a question in a way that is not the best wording.

I agree with Bruce, they aren �t specific enough. How about - "What is M. Thatcher doing in London?"
