Hi all,
I know very well that English prepositions are very difficult to master. A few days ago when I was uploading a few photos on my facebook account, I got just confused between <<to>> and <<for>>. I wanted to name my alblum <<My Visit of Qutab Minar 2012>>. Later I changed my mind and wrote <<My Visit to Qutab MInar 2012>>. Is the former ungrammatical? As per the oald Oxford grammar, visit when used as a noun is normally followed by the preposition <<to>>. For example, a visit to the doctor. So which one is correct: My visit of Qutab Minar (Delhi) or My visit to Qutab Minar (Delhi)?
