Default Re: I visited there last year.

Both are probably ok depending on where you are talking about.

If you are talking about a museum, building or site of interest then both are ok. If you are talking about a city or a country I would only use "there".

Thank you, jamiep.
I'm not "Unregistered." I'm "tzfujimino!!"
I'm not quite sure how to use this website.
You've been a great help, jamiep. Thank you.
