Explicação da Regra:

A simple and direct way to indicate that you or someone is going to a specific place or has arrived at a specific place is to use the verb 到 (dào). The verb 到 (dào) is used to talk about arriving in places. Subj. + 到 + Place For these examples, it's straightforward to think of 到 (dào) as simply meaning "to arrive." • 他们 已经 到 酒吧 了。 Tāmen yǐjīng dào jiǔbā le.They have already arrived at the bar. • 我 刚 到 家。 Wǒ gāng dào jiā.I just got home. • 你 到 机场 了 吗？ Nǐ dào jīchǎng le ma?Have you arrived at the airport? • 我 已经 到 火车站 了。 Wǒ yǐjīng dào huǒchēzhàn le.I've already arrived at the train station. • 我们 先 到 北京 ， 然后 到 香港。 Wǒmen xiān dào Běijīng, ránhòu dào Xiānggǎng.First we'll arrive in Beijing, then in Hong Kong. In some examples translating 到 (dào) as "to arrive" doesn't work as well and you might need to expand your understanding of exactly what 到 (dào) means. That's what we'll examine below.
