Definition
旧地 literally means 'old place' — a location you have visited before and are now returning to, often with a sense of nostalgia or memory. It's a literary or formal term, not used in everyday conversation about going back to a familiar spot; for that you'd use 以前去过的地方 or 老地方. You'll encounter it in travel writing, memoirs, and historical narratives.
n.
a place once visiteda former haunt
