Yes, an "it" place can be used to describe a place that everyone must see, although I have seen it in writing more than in everyday conversation. The way I interpret it, "it" refers to the place as THE destination, THE place to go. Hope it helps!

Hi Sarab, very interesting. I thought it might be "in-places". Never heard this expression over here.

Nice.

"in-places" is also used to describe a cool place, where all the cool kids go Both are equally used.
