Hi Shray,

The reason we use "to which" here is because the original construction is that we "add something TO something else..."

With places, we use either "in which," "at which," "to which" etc depending on the action:

1. I have a house on the coast at which I *spend* my summers.
2. I have a house on the coast to which I *go* in the summer.
3. I have a house on the coast in which I keep several heirlooms.

Again, all of this depends on the verb.

By the way, have you seen our GMAT Idiom eBook? I think you would find it quite useful for many of your questions. You can find it here:
