About this pattern
Explanation
どこ is a basic question word used to ask about location. It can pair with verbs to ask where an action takes place, where someone or something is located, or where something comes from. The particle choice after どこと depends on the nuance: どこに/どこへ for destination or location of movement, どこで for the place of an action, どこから for the starting point, and どこにありますか for existence/location of objects.
